The loser of Monday's game "might" just have the advantage to draft this guy. This is actually more of a "must lose" game than the Chiefs game is, as I doubt they would draft a OT with their first pick. It makes me sick to think of us being favored by 3. The new GM and coach will need all the help they can get.

But you can't pass up on a franchise can't miss LT who currently is ranked no.1 in this class of prospects. Jk

Honestly, I don't know what the Chiefs are going to do. They most likely won't have a coaching staff next season, Scott Pioli probably won't make it to the end of this season, and the team could be losing some pivotal starters (Bowe, for example) to Free Agency.

But, with Jeff Allen (who they selected last year) and Branden Albert who is still playing out a large contract, I don't think they go with a LT, seeing as either of those guys can play LT, and play it well.

Think he's taking a jab at Bwood.

Ah.

I see.

It's still an odd jab, since I do believe that Joeckel is the #1 prospect in the Draft, lol.

I beleive Chucks stance is that elite LT don't win rings.

Well as I look at it Joeckel can't pass the ball and he sure as hell can't make Cassel or Quin play at a high level. Even if there isn't an elite QB (in somes opinion) Chiefs have to reach for a QB.

If I was the Chiefs, I think I'd try and get Glennon in the 2nd, if he falls that far. I really believe that Glennon could end up being the 2nd best, if not the best QB in this draft.

It's funny, this year's Draft has a lot of QB talent, but it's not where people think it is. The perception is that Geno Smith, Matt Barkley, and Tyler Wilson are the top QBs when it actually might be Mike Glennon, Zac Dysert, and Aaron Murray as the best QBs.

      Malik Willis anyone

      One thing I didn’t consider is how thin this draft is at quarterback. That’s going to drive up the market for backups and borderline starters like Willis, Jones, and Jameis Winston. Because of that, we’ll most likely be priced out of the market for this tier of backup.

      We've already beat the #1 seed twice, why not one more? (Packers and Rams were both #1 seed at the time we played)

      My determination has come down to this. Based on recent QB history, has Bryce's improvement warranted 50m per season? Lamar is the only original team QB to play on his 5th year. The others took major deals at the end of the 3rd, before or just after the option was signed. Chances are, we're getting asked for the same.  I haven't rooted for Bryce to fail. I've rooted for him to succeed so big that them signing that extension would give me no worries about our future at QB at all. We haven't seen that level of play consistently that this year. We haven't seen it in the past 6 games.  We're about to be at a threshold with Bryce and I worry about what this front office will do. We have a history of bad decision making and Morgan has been part of that group making those decisions. I don't want Carolina in the same boat Arizona and Miami are right now. It has nothing to with being right. It has to do with wanting to win for more than a single season. We've never had back to back winning seasons. Faith in their abilities is not warranted at this point.
