Oh look it's the guy that coincidentally only pops up when the Chiefs lose. [Reply]
Less than 2 years ago the narrative on Howie Roseman was that he couldn't identity WR talent for shit, now the Eagles have DeVonta Smith and AJ Brown. [Reply]
Most sweet players are drafted early in the draft. You won’t consistently get difference makers in the 4th round. Outliers happen sure, but you can’t bank on that [Reply]

This is the problem when you get a Travis Kelce and Tyreek Hill with a 3rd and 5th.

Nobody is saying that he's not a huge miss, but it happens to the best of them. It's the narrative that people are trying to push because of it.
Just look at the Bills, who everybody wants to blow. They've spent a day 2 pick on a RB basically every year, and they still haven't found one. [Reply]

And in the Veach era, the team has averaged 12.5 wins/season or something very much like that. 4 consecutive AFC-W titles, 3 consecutive AFCC titles, two SB appearances, 1 SB W.
But somehow Veach is doing it wrong. Okay I guess.
A lot of that success can be contributed to the John Dorsey picks. [Reply]

I can't believe this narrative is still a thing when we're a legit top 3 team, and basically have 3 Dorsey guys left on the entire roster, one of whom is Mahomes who Veach gets most of the credit for. [Reply]

Well they were shit for a year and Smith was an easy pick to identify and they have a rookie QB c NT tact to be able to put a guy like AJ Brown.
The Chiefs are never a shit team under Andy. We have to work harder for talent [Reply]

I understand, I'm just pointing out that things change quickly when you have an aggressive GM who will attack a weakness. [Reply]

He said it as the Veach era of success not just this year. Jones, Kelce , Tyreek, Mahomes ( we know Veach had a hand in this) . That’s four all pro players. If Hunt wouldn’t have fucked up he would have been another stud for us. All played important roles in winning a Super Bowl and AFC west titles. [Reply]
