Phillip Gaines

I haven't had a chance to thoroughly watch the first 3 pre-season games but did watch all of the GB game. Gaines played horrible against 2nd and 3rd string offenses of GB. Has he played this bad all pre-season ? What is your take on the kid so far ?

I agree with you. He needs a year to develop. Mark my words, he will be a good corner in the future. Many of the first and second rounders have looked bad as well. This is new not only for the speed of the game but with the changes in the rules. Gaines played very well in the first game. Go watch the film. Yes he had a rough game against the Packers but you all really need to go look at the fact that he played more than anyone else that night and he played 2 special teams as well as both outside CBs and inside. Two of the penalties were total bull s### Give the kid a break.

You're just ok with that ... i'm not
I am okay with the approach. The execution... We will see, but for a solution reliant on drafting and value pickups, Dorseys pickups better start shaping the **** up.

We devalued the oline. Focused on high positional value guys in the draft this year. Shredded old veteran contracts. Cleaned up the cap. In theory this is a good way to do it. But so far his picks have been shit. But there's still time for the picks to shape up so we will see.

Yeah, he really is like a Marcus Cooper.. just a year behind in development. Neither are remarkable yet, but both have the skills to develop into quality starters.

Point is, Chiefs fans expectations are set way too high. A team is lucky to hit on 2 or 3 guys each draft. Thats a good draft. 4 guys is exceptional. Not every player is going to be good,. and it expecting that is unrealistic.

Jamal Charles.

Will Shields.

That San Diego WR last year whose name escapes at the moment.

But we aren't talking about stars.

3rd round picks should be guys that can contribute now.

even the most successful teams in the league have numerous failed draft picks.

At least on CP, you're wrong. There are people who have been calling these guys busts as soon as they took preseason snaps.

I hate the Fisher pick. Despised it from day 1. But I know he's limited right now by lack of experience and a hurt shoulder. Those aren't excuses. Those are legit reasons. But CP is so black and white sometimes, anything positive about a polarizing player is criticized as being an apologist. I don't think Fisher will be a great player but I know he needs time, bulk, and two shoulders. I don't know what we have in Gaines, but I sure as shit didn't expect him to be ready by game 1. Even with Sorensen... I don't think highly of him at all, but we have people calling him a disaster when he hasn't even breathed a single regular season second in the NFL. I've been really consistent about giving guys 1-2 years to really show what they have. And I refuse to dismiss someone as completely terrible if there are situational factors affecting their performance.

What's troubling is that they aren't looking like talented, raw athletes needing development (I.e. Dee Ford), they look like complete catastrophes (I.e. Turk McBride). There is a difference.
In fairness, Poe, Cooper, Dorsey, and Knile Davis looked like complete disasters early on. Even Tyson Jackson... turned into an adequate DE but he was a shit show his first season. It's even harder in the modern NFL where we have shortened offseasons for rookies. I'm really concerned about Ford. I worry about Fisher even being a starter 2 years from now. So yeah, I'm concerned about these guys, but I'm also going to give them time to work some stuff out. Now Ford? That feels a lot different. Guy came from a competitive college program -- I don't bring him up because as a first round pick who was drafted to be ready right away, he doesn't look the part. That's different.

That's great that Cooper and Gaines have the physical tools to be good CB's IN A YEAR OR TWO. Meanwhile, the Chiefs have a handful of guys that are potential probowlers. Another handful that are solid. The rest are succkage or in development. How about puting together a complete team.

I hope you're right, but I think I would have much rather had Donte Moncrief in the third and then either Johnson or Lawson in the fourth (or David Yankey or Cyril Richardson for the sink hole OG spot that we continue to try to shovel asphalt into).
Pierre Desir has looked like absolute shit.

That's the approach Scott Pioli took. He took a lot of layups. Way too many offensive linemen in the first 3 rounds. Nickel corners. 5-techniques. Safety in the top 10. These guys were ready to help out right away. They were safe picks who could contribute right away.

But safe picks only work if you're building around an elite QB. If you're building around another type of QB, you want to build your team around playmakers. I would rather have a few playmakers than a bunch of safe guys. Playmakers come with risk especially after the first round. What Dorsey did in 2013 was safe. And I hated it. The approach we took this year is the right one and I hope one we continue to make. But again, the approach only works if you execute. I'm really nervous about our draft picks the past 2 years.

Ford was drafted to be ready right away? Did someone inform Hali and Houston one of them has got to go?

As for Sorensen, you're really defending the guy who provided more tape of himself chasing receivers into the endzone then doing anything else?

As a first round pick from a major college program, he should be a lot more NFL ready. I get the concern there, but I'm not even close to ready to saying we know anything at all about him yet.

Sorensen... I'm not even defending the guy. We have people calling him completely terrible when he's a rookie who hasn't even seen (let alone played) a single snap of regular season football. And people flipping out about picking him over a guy who hasn't even been picked up by any other team.

Yup, he was even better in the NFL than he was at Cal. I guess our crapfest QBs really were holding him back, lol.
