No elite in this draft.

[Chief Roundup]

According to Todd McShay and Mel Kiper there is not an elite QB in this draft. They went on to say that there wasn't an elite LT, DE or pass rusher either.
After seeing this I thought I needed to share.

So we finally are going to have a top pick if not the top pick and there is not elite talent available for us to pick from. How frigging depressing.
We should of drafted Tannehill last year like I wanted. We would be in a position to draft Manti Te'O. The best player in the draft this season.

Of course, all that went moot when he doubled down on Cassel and disregarded trading even a third round pick for Tannehill and didn't bring in anyone that could upgrade the position for us.

IMO we should have signed Orton AND traded up for Tannehill and proceeded to do what Miami did with a completely open qb competition.

If ***** is allowed to stay, I fully expect him to draft Landry Jones. I said as much almost 2 years ago.

Good Lord what FAIL that would be...

Nope I don't see it. IF ***** is allowed to stay, I think he'll be forced to draft a QB with that #1 or #2 overall pick.

Still, not a big deal IMO. Just don't give me a weak armed QB. I want our next QB to be not have any part of the field that is limited. As long as he has good arm strength, that's enough for me. And I think Geno does. (Wilson does also).

I think Geno has a comparible arm to Rogers. Go watch those 50 yarders he throws that hits his receivers in stride that are on a rope. When you can put 50 yards on a ball in a game time application at hit the receiver perfectly when covered, that's usable arm strength.

He's smart enough to know when to use the arm. He's not Favre'ing it all over the field at 3,000 mph regardless of the receiver depth.

Tyson Jackson says hi!

Curry wishes he could be like Te'o. Te'o is a dark horse for the Heisman. Te'o is the new Ray Lewis, Andy Katzenmoyer, Bobby Carpenter and Lawerence Taylor all rolled into one

Different place, different time. Don't get me wrong. I hope it doesn't come to this and Scott is long gone.

But I do think if he's around, Clark will force him to take a QB with that 1st.

Yep, and we need leaders on both sides of the ball. If we could get Te'o and a QB in the first, that would be ideal imo.

I don't think there is a sure fire QB prospect, but we HAVE to roll the dice on someone. I would like to personally slap the **** out of everyone that preferred going 7-9 over sucking for Luck or RGIII

Well I wouldn't be on board with this because I don't think KC needs to settle for 2nd fiddle at QB but I'll entertain this thought process and tell you the problem I have with it.

It all depends on how the Chiefs have the QBs ranked. If you feel that late 1st round QB is just as good as the very first or second guy picked, IMO that's a stretch, and you can somehow guarantee that you get that QB you wanted, then fine.

But if one of those things doesn't come through, then you don't chance QB based on a ILB. You just don't do that.

Think about how Cincy wound up with Green and Dalton...

That's a pretty rare occurrance but, we could definately move back into the first round imo. That's what I am talking about.

Andy Dalton, Ryan Tannehill and Mark Sanchez just chuckled.

***** would sit the kid his first year if he was forced to draft one.

Pure and simple, ***** needs to go.

Dalton is certainly the exception and not the rule. This chart proves as much.

Time to do something different from what we've always done.

I don't care if you really want to draft one of these QBs as much as the rest of us. Cut the crap and stop your bitching.

Also, get your sarcasm meter fixed ASAP. If you have one.

I didn't come in here BooHoo. I do want to draft one of the top QB's.
I am not bitching...It just figures that we finally are going to be in a position to get a top dude and it is considered a weak class. By the experts. Whether any of us like it or not. Or agree or not.

I in no way acted like a pussy.
