Another reason that it would have made more sense to sign Orton to a multi year deal and draft a QBotF that needed time to develop. Then your team isn't complete shit as you rebuild.

RG3 is more like Steve Young -- a driven winner. I see smarts in Geno, just not quite as driven to win. He takes what you give him and I like that.

Doesn't matter. Nothing we can do about that now.
Still take the best QB possible. If that guy would normally be the #10 overall pick in any given draft, you still take him. That's worlds better than anything we've ever done. Don't be fooled into the standard Chiefs organization & fans way of thinking where you look at some awesome LB, DT, etc. Those positions don't win you games. QB does. It's 80% QB. 20% everybody else. |

ya, I'd have liked that too. Orton is obviously coachable and that could really help the next guy see how it works at the NFL level.

At some point last year, Matt Barkley was considered a better prospect than RGIII and was thought to have a slight chance to be the #1 overall pick in front of Luck, the best QB prospect in a long time.
Now that he's not even considered to be the best Qb prospect available in next year's draft makes me think the trio of Smith/Barkley/Wilson is as good as most year's QB draft crop. And at the end of the day, as a Chiefs fan, I'd be happy with ''just'' a top 10 QB in this league. |

I'm pretty sure at this time last year most people weren't on RG3 as an elite pro prospect. I love revisionist history.

Anyway, I digress... RGIII had a superb junior year. His sophomore year, 2010, Baylor was 7-6. His Heisman junior year, Baylor was 10-3. And if you are saying that Smith isn't a driven winner, you would be wrong. He's put WV on his back a multitude of times. And he's not a "running" QB, which you seem to be eluding to anyway. I'm not fully comprehending what you are trying to get at, so this is why this response is so vague. Smith is a stud. He's a better pure QB prospect than Griffin IMO. |
