I see a loooooot of question marks here. A bunch of guys who would be 3rd or 4th rounders in THIS draft class if they declared this year. A bunch of these dudes are so young they might not even declare for the draft. And finally, we got a bunch of spread QBs who.... [gasp!]... need time to acclimate to an NFL pro style offense and develop the footwork and timing of taking snaps under center.
I see Sam Darnold. That's great. There's your #1 overall. IF HE FUCKING DECLARES, THAT IS. I see Josh Rosen, who looked good in 2015 but could wind up as another Christian Hackenburg who never puts it all together. And I see a bunch of dried cum with question marks, JUST LIKE THIS QB DRAFT CLASS.
Here's how Walter Football has them ranked:
1. Sam Darnold, USC
2. Josh Rosen, UCLA
3. Luke Falk, Washington State
4. Josh Allen, Wyoming
5. Jarrett Stidham, Auburn
6. Nick Fitzgerald, Mississippi State
7. Chase Litton, Marshall
8. Riley Ferguson, Memphis
COULD this be an awesome and deep draft class for QBs? Yes, absoutely. No question about it. But guess what. There's an equal chance that this QB class flames out and looks just as bad as the 2013 class, particularly if Sam Darnold doesn't declare.
People who bitch about the 2017 class don't fucking get it. They think if there's no true top end QB, that means they all suck. What do the Chiefs fucking care about the quality of the top guys in a given QB draft class? We're not going to be in a position to draft them!
Again, let me say this slowly, so the retards and assholes can hear me:
In ANY GIVEN DRAFT CLASS, the top QB prospects with the best resumes and attributes are irrelevant to the QB draft needs of the Chiefs. The Chiefs have zero shot at picking any of them. The worst teams with the biggest QB needs will draft all of these players before Dorsey can even begin to pick up the goddamn phone to call and move up.
Tell me what we gain from NOT drafting a QB in 2017 so we can draft Josh Allen, Jarrett Stidham, or Chase fucking Litton in 2018, a FULL YEAR LONGER where Alex Smith is the only fucking thing we have at QB. [Reply]
If this draft sucks, then why are a ton of teams scouting a lot of these QB's? It isn't just us. The Giants coach was at Mahomes pro day and he apparently never goes out to meet with prospects.
These QB's can be good prospects in the right situation ala Dak Prescott. Most of them have a lot to work with already. [Reply]

You lose your first round pick, but you get another one the following year. That's the point...

In the Playoffs last year the Chiefs were the only team to play with a QB they didn't draft. Miami played with there backup who they didn't draft I believe. Tananhill who they drafted would've helped them as well as Carr would've improved the Raiders chances. I see a pattern here.
Patriots -Brady
Oakland-Cook
Steelers-Big Ben
Texans-Savage
Miamai-Moore (not drafted/not the starter)
Chiefs-Smith (not drafted)
Funny that you say that because I was thinking about this the other night. I wouldn't be upset at all if we used two picks on QB's like the Redskins did. Nothing wrong with hedging your bets at that position. [Reply]

What? Why would a team NOT scout players? Posted via Mobile Device [Reply]

With the teams history, you'd think they would be scared to ever trade for another teams backup again...but I guess the scar from 83 is larger... [Reply]

Do it next year if you're gonna do that.
You shut up, Alex-lover!!!! You draft QB in rd 1, rd 2, AND round 3. Screw BPA. You keep drafting 3 per yr until you get one that can throw it deep and has the balls to tell Andy to shove the short passing up his fat ass.
