KC Star: Clark looks forward to next season

[Pin Head]

I see some big "I told ya so's" coming.
(lol)

Are we possibly overanalyzing what Clark said and all he means is that they don't think anyone in this class is as good as RG3 or Luck, but that we might take a qb that..." or just taking a player who can really help you upgrade.”

People don't over analyze on CP.

Is that even debatable?

I think he'd love to hear Phat Andy say he's in love with a QB at no 1.

I also think he's smart enough to be open to a reeruned trade allowing us move down and still get our guy.

I don't think it will happen.

I don't think he believes it will happen.

But I think he's still playing the "meh" game at 1 in hopes someone will chug some purple drank on draft day...

I agree. I think it would make Clark's year if he heard that from Andy. In the end I don't think the Chiefs know what they are doing yet. They still have to meet all the players ect. Everyone used to think Clark didn't give a **** and now what he says on the radio is taken as official front office belief.

This is my thinking as well. After what Washington gave up last year to get RG3. But I still want Geno, and no Cassel on this team.

I looked at this a couple years ago and the odds of finding a franchise QB are about equal if you

a) draft a QB in the first round

or

b) use all you picks in rounds 2 through 7 on QBs.

Rain Man did an analysis a few weeks ago about how often the first QB taken in the draft turns out to be the best QB in the draft. More often than not, it does. That means General managers possess some level of skill in judging which QB is the best. Since we have the first pick, we are in the unique position of having our choice of QBs. If we wait, or trade down, the chances are we will miss out on the best QB in this year's crop.

I mean exactly what is the brain trust's plan to get a franchise QB if they don't take one first overall this year? Will that plan give the Chiefs better odds of getting a franchise QB than simply doing the obvious thing of taking one with the first overall pick?

It's one thing to sign an Alex Smith in free agency.

I don't like that move but that move alone won't have me jumping ship.

You use the most important 1st round draft pick (arguably) in the history of the franchise on a LT or ****ing D lineman and you might as well paint billboards that ****ing day that say "NEXT YEAR."

The Geno supporters have constantly been labeled as "Geno or bust" when it really isn't that way.

I'll defer to Dorsey and Reid. For some reason I trust them. And I use to despise Clark Hunt. Not anymore. Let's see how this all plays out.

[Pasta Little Brioni]

We "deferred" to Polio too when he went with Cassel.

Who is Reid's Cassel? You know, the QB he'll stick with no matter how poorly be plays.

[spanky 52]

I hear what you're saying PGM but I think this time Clark and company know they can and must hit a home run so to speak.
