Should the Chiefs have drafted Aaron Rodgers over Derrick Johnson?

Would we have been in a better position now???

Rodgers would have gotten to learn from Trent Green a few years....

Hmmmm....thoughts to ponder.

Who was he going to learn from in KC? Nobody. He was going to be thrown into the fire at the first available opportunity without the coaching staff correcting the mechanical issues he had coming out of Cal. And then he'd be just as big a disappointment as Alex Smith, if not more so.
So is your post to tell us how we have no hope and even if we'd drafted him he'd suck anyway?

Texas players are a risk just because of that program they come from.
Quarerbacks developed by Jeff Tedford are a risk. How else do you explain how many first round QBs groomed by him have failed?

Partly, but it's mainly to say just drafting Rodgers over DJ wouldn't on its own guarantee success. Do you think Vermeil/Herm would've handled him properly? Because he was the definition of a project; he is not the same QB now as he was when he came out of the draft.

Absolutely. Players break the mold.

Just makes that selection a riskier pick, and you need to have both eyes wide open to make that choice.

I think what Rogers shows is that a talented QB is a bad college system (by bad, I mean one that doesn't help in th etransition to the pro game) can overcome that system if given time to develop.

The problem is weeding out the less talented from those that do have the talent to succeed.

Given that Green was entrenched as the starter, Rogers would have come ot a perfect situation.

I agree. The problem with those players is that those offenses make it so difficult to evualate them. How do you scout a player who doesn't take snaps from center or doesn't have to make NFl quality reads or throws? They aren't going to automatically fail, but those obstacles make it very difficult to evaluate them.

Explain how qbs from Cal and that coaching staff always failed in the NFL.

Same thing.

That is the point of the post.

UMMMM dude, he would have learned from Trent Green/Dick Vermeil and Al Saunders...granted that after that he would have been dropped of a cliff witth Dick Curl and Herm, but that is neither here nor there...remember that Trent could have lasted through 06 and likely 07 if he doesnt get knocked out against Cincy. It may have been the perfect scenario to fall into for him.

Ive always been of the mindset, a player sucks because he sucks.

There is no "perfect situation" in which to draft a good young QB. If you have a need for one and are in position to make your team better, you do it.

I cant believe alot of Chiefs fans still sit around and wonder why these franchise has suffered for decades?? Shouldnt it be fairly obvious by now?

In fairness here a lot of the Tedford QB's that failed had other major flags, Akili Smith was a 1 year starter that was also dumb as a box of rocks, Kyle Boller's career completion percentage was under 50%.

Apologies... It's been so long since anything good has happened to this team, I'd frankly forgotten.

Derrick Johnson is going to look like a monster when hes lineing up next to Kindle and McClain with Hali and them being aloud to roam free behind our star line of Dorsey, Franklin, and Jackson. Crennel will whip this defense into shape without Herm, Gun, and Krumri here slowing the development.
