The question here was about who to pick in the 1st round, a QB or not. I never opined about the 3rd round at all - simply because this really isn't the thread for it.
It's my opinion that picking a LT in the first round, like Miami with Long last year, gives us the better long term and short term chance of success than trying to find OL help later in this draft. I think that waiting until later rounds and signing undrafted FAs to get OL help is the biggest reason we've done so poorly these past few years.
If we're looking to protect a young QB, we probably need 2-3 new starters on the OL. And I don't want to see our QBOTF pick go down in flames because he has a bunch of 2nd day picks trying to man the OL.
You can try to change the meaning of what I wrote, but it's in black and white. We can't keep putting off our OL problems forever. The Chiefs will never groom a decent QB without a solid OL to protect him. If we don't get that solid line, see Carr, David for the result.
[quote=kcmostwanted;118745]I'm not sold on the 2 top QBs, and i'm not sold on Thigpen either.
-3rd...Are we confident we'll be able to land Sam Bradford w/ our 1st round pick???
100% sure we will not, at least this year
Who said we were putting off our OL problem? We haven't been putting it off. Carl Peterson just thought he knew what he was doing when he got a bunch of random guys.
McIntosh kick-started at the end of last year, but that is way to late and unacceptable. Not to mention he is almost as fragile as Brodie.
I would go on about the rest of the guys the idiot brought in, but this isn't about the OL.
Absolutely not. No QB. There are very few QBs in the entire draft that are worthy of being drafted. Maybe 4-5. We should most definately sign of few of the undrafted and check them out during TC and the preseason.
It will be interesting to see what they do eventually do with our 3rd pick. Offense or defense? Maybe trade down. Lots of people seem to think they might try to get Matt Cassel. That IMO is ridiculous and not needed. We should know which way depending on what happens in the Free Agency.
I didn't really read this. I just saw the name Tebow. I just wanted to say Tebow should not even be mentioned with the others in that statement. He is not an NFL QB. He has A LOT to improve on next year if he seriously wants to play in the NFL. Accuracy and his release are the biggies he needs to work on. He is sure as heck not gonna be running all over the place in the NFL.
Sorry. A bit off topic. Just thought I'd say that. I'm not a huge fan of his. Plus everyone thinks he is amazingly good but he isn't.
I agree with alot of people here.
I don't think we should pick up a QB in the first round. And I do think Thigpen should be given a chance. I think as long as our defense can improve, Thigpen won't be pressured to try and score 20 points in the 4th quarter.
I assume Pioli will pick a QB in the later rounds. Similar to what he did with Tom Brady. In fact, there are more decent QB's out there than we realize.
OK pumpkin, no one is trying to change the meaning of what you wrote but here you have said the same thing with an explanation and it makes sense.
Here you sound like you are saying the O line is gonna suck. See the difference? I am not changing anything. You typed it.
