Chiefs Cassel or Sanchez? - Page 11

KCBOSS1 · 04-11-2009, 06:45 PM

I realize that we are where we are, but the more I see about Sanchez, the more I'm afraid that a few years down the road, we may look back and realize that we passed up on the franchise guy that we've been looking for. I know that Cassel played ok last year, but is he a franchise guy? ...likely not. Thoughts?

I'm not taking either one of them...that's like a Chiefnj question where he asks you what you would do while telling you "other than" 5 plausible scenarios.

Wouldn't that be easier?

Is Sanchez a product of a system? Or is he instant offense?

The system named Randy Moss.

So maybe regardless of what we do, it's the system that will make or break us. See, if you would have chimed in earlier, you would have saved me having to read 150 other comments.

I just figure those are the real two options unless Pioli wants to reach... actually I take that back.. I still have a feeling Crabtree is on the radar.

If you don't think BJ Raji is a legit option you haven't paid much attention to how that Pat team drafted.

I'm just throwing this out there, because I have a feeling people think I'm on the LT bandwagon now... Brown and Raji are probably my top two guys I want...

"Would you rather have your arm cut off? Or melted off?"

Neither option is good.

So let's just go with the Keg plan of drafting LTs in the first round every year.

I bet Albert could learn to play center.

And look I'm not against trading down if they decide they want to go with an OT for the right side you just don't do that in the top 10.

If the Chiefs really believe Cassel is their guy than they should give him things to work with and this is also a really bad defensive draft. If the Chiefs came out traded down and took a OT a Center and a WR I'd understand why.

It's the trenches thhat make pr break NFL QBs. Many thought Trent Green was a system QB. He was in a system that lead the league if thats the case. Cassel has shown that he can learn on the run, He's worth the effort. Especially after giving up the 2nd for him. Had we not traded for him, the arguement would carry more weight. Though I am not sold on Sanchez in particular.

Cassel is our boy. Let's give him the bast chance to succeed by putting talent around him on both sides of the ball.

No place for buyers remorse now. Time to get behind him, like we did Green.

Oh please we all know that Randy didn't give 2 shits when he was there, it's not remotely the same.

That line was a bit overblown...no one should need that to succeed.
