The "IF no QB with the 1st pick" poll

That doesn't mean that he's worthy of #1 overall.

Being the best player in a draft doesn't necessarily equal success. I'm not stating that Smith won't have success, but this Do or Die mentality is quite frankly, ****ing stupid.

If the Chiefs select Smith, great! If they pass on him, great! Andy Reid is in a better position than anyone on Chiefsplanet (and just maybe, Planet Earth) to determine the best QB for the Kansas City Chiefs.

I'm not singling YOU out but this ****ing bullshit about him being a better prospect than Manning, Rivers, Rothlisberger, etc. and so on is not only a bunch of ****ing fan bullshit, it's a ****ing TURNOFF.

How many thousands of posts do we need to read about ****ing "Geno" before the Combines and draft?

It's really become sickening.

I know - I'm with you.

I WANT the Chiefs to draft a QB in the first round and I WANT him to succeed.

But I'm not going to concede that Reid is a failure, an idiot, afraid, etc. if that doesn't happen. And the only reason I've even linked these stories is because there is some doubt as to whether the Chiefs WILL take a QB in the first round.

****, I pushed for Ryan. I pushed hard for Sanchez. I wasn't here last year but I would have given up every pick in 2012 for RGIII. I am in no way, shape or form against taking a QB at 1.1. None, zip, zero.

But, the perception is that no QB is WORTH taking at 1.1.

Personally, I find this to be very, very interesting.

And i find that perception to be a bunch of smoke and mirrors bullshit. Who gives a **** about the 2012 draft???? its over. dead and gone. Time to move on and realize that there is valid talent at QB for 1.1 It is.....what it is.

Why would a team that's chosing #1 overall need "smoke and mirrors"?

Also, WHY should ANY team consciously and deliberately avoid making comparisons to the previous draft?

Search him in this thread. He said he'd take Smith over ANY QB this CENTURY other than Luck.

I mean, come on. Really?

There's a lot to like about Geno, and I can almost understand sac's take.

The big problem here is that everyone is measuring this class against last year.

There are only a handful of QBs in the last 10 or 12 years that I like better than Geno as prospects.

And because of durability concerns, and because I do believe that Geno is more polished passer at this stage, I do like Geno better than RGIII.

That said, Geno would have been the 3rd QB off the board last year.

If he would have been taken 8th last year, then heis absolutely worth #1 this year.
