PrintMark Sanchez of USC.
Well the reason for this post is to find out what the great minds at AH feel about this.
We all know scott Pioli has a knack or luck for picking QB's in late rounds (Brady,Cassell) but is this good for the Chiefs? can we get things turned around ASAP with taking not just Sanchez but any offensive player as our first pick. If we do go offense dont you think the O-line is were we need the most help at. what do you guys think?

All this Sanchez talk
is really turning me off. The kid’s a fluke. He doesn’t deserve to be drafted in R1 let alone pick #3. I think there are a number of better prospects in this draft class than Sanchez. If he wasn’t from USC there wouldn’t even be any discussion. In fact, I wouldn’t even pick him in R2 let alone R1

In the words of Bill Tobin, "Who the hell is Mel Kiper anyway? He has no more credentials to do what hes doing than my neighbor, and my neighbors a postman. I doubt if he's ever put on a jock strap."

I WOULD LOSE MY SHIT
MAYBE take Sanchez 2nd round. If we waste our 3rd overall……. I will go bat-shit crazy. Like shave my head or go lesbian crazy…. american idol audition crazy.
hilarious

It Just goes to show you...
…how much smater Scott Pioli is than Mel Kieper. If Scott Pioli takes mark Sancheez with the third overall pick if will remove my tattoo with a belt-sander and replace it with a butterfly.
just keep matriculating the ball down the field !
I don't see it
Why is he being considered such a great quarterback? is he really worth a first round pick? and for that matter why does every “professional” think we will take a QB in the first? I think we will wait till the 2nd or 3rd to take a QB
Why is considered such a great QB?
Because he balled out of controll in his first year in the nation’s strongest conference.
Kiper is a
douche-nozzle. end of story
The Day Herm Edwards didn't get his team ready to beat the Raiders at Arrowhead is the day he kissed his job goodbye.
So long, farewell, auf Wiedersehn GOODBYYYEE!
Kiper's hair
has obviously started to grow down into his brain if he thinks Pioli would do that.

i'm wondering
how feasable it would be to swap first round picks with NE in eexchange for Cassel. that would keep them from having to franchise him and pay a huge salary for him because nobody will give up 2 first round picks for him.
I'd throw in my left nut...
if NE would take that deal, but they won’t. NE is too smart to trade up to #3 in this years draft and spend that kind of money.
If Pioli does pull this one off I’m getting his face tattooed on my chest.

the way i see it
We either take Crabtree or trade down to a team that really wants him. he will be gone at #4 for sure because Seattle will scoop him up. So we take him as the best player available or use him as bait to trade down.
The two best options are;
1) trade down or even out of the first round for multiple 2nd/3rd round picks.
2) Get a lineman. Perferably O-line but D-line would be good too. Lineman are cheaper than skill position players (QB,RB,WR,TE) and rarley do the not benefit the team at least moderatly. (as opposed to being a bust)
The volume of picks is more important in a rebuilding situation than drafting to fill a particular need.
just keep matriculating the ball down the field !
there is also
a scenario out there where Detroit and Stl both pick OT’s (Smith and Oher) and stafford falls to us at #3
Stafford is better than Sanchez
In the same way that loosing your nuts is better than losing your d***.

Dude your in love with this guy (Crabcakes)? Every thread your bringing up this guys name.

He's got acute LFS
Larry Fitzgerald Sydrome, for which there will be no treatment until after the superbowl and no cure until late April.
Take two brewsky’s and call me in the morning.

Here's the way I see it
the only way the chiefs will take a QB with the third pick will be if Stafford is still around. If he isn’t then I think that they will go with Curry or attempt to trade out of the third pick to probably the middle of the first round and then I believe they will take OL.
I would really like to see the chiefs go defense with their first pick. They have to be able to get pressure on the quarterback and maybe even a sack once in a great while (I know that is asking a lot).
I don’t know what is gonna happen with Tony Gonzalez but I think that taking Chase Coffman in maybe the third round if he is still there would also be a good pick.
we may not even pick!

Who
knows ? When you gut the core, you never know what the Chief/patriot way will produce. As long as we WIN ( and I feel good about Pioli) we can pick or trade in R1.
Great!
Let’s take Sanchez or Stafford instead of a super stud O Lineman that will last 15 years protecting our QBs. It would be so much more exciting to watch our QBs throw the ball within 2 seconds or become a linebacker sandwich. I’ve been a real fan of our run-for-your-life-or-require-surgery style of offence. And it has been so much fun counting how many linebackers, D Linemen, and CBs our backs have to dodge while they are still in the backfield. Yea, an untested college one year wonder that played behind a solid line and had all day long to throw is a perfect fit for our offense and everyone can see that. What a way to “break” him in! Why in the world would we want to pay less for a player that can protect the QBs we have, when we can pay top dollar to a young QB that will have to start after 5 or 6 games, because we don’t have any healthy vetrans left…again! Pass protection and run blocking…..BOOORRRRRIIINNNNNGGGG.
Pure brilliance, I tell you.
His name is yet unwritten,
yet is upon the lips of mighty linebackers who tremble as he he vaults off the line to crush them where ever they roam upon the field of play. Who you ask, or what? The mightiest of linemen is all that I seek for number 3.
I believe Crabtree will be the best pick at #3
Sure there are gaping holes to fill, but I’ll be damned if Crabtree doesn’t look like a can’t-miss playmaker. I’m not sold on Thigpen being the man to lead an offense featuring D-Bowe, Crabtree, and El Gay (LJ), but taking Sanchez that high seems risky at best… Almost dirty. The Chiefs can’t afford a Dirty Sanchez.
I think I got
Herpasiphilitis from your post.

Defensive End
There is a glaring hole there, so we take Orakpo is my guess… Unless they plan on switching the defense to a 3-4, then maybe Everette Brown.

same thing ever year
Kiper always has us taking a QB, he is horrible at figuring out team needs, I can’t believe noone has mentioned AARON CURRY who WILL be the pick, no questions asked..why would we draft ANOTHER OL when we drafted Albert last year??? Albert did great at LT last year, we aren’t gonna pay a RT that kinda money, and we aren’t gonna slide our number 1 pick inside paying him that kind of money.Curry is a game changer, Defense will be the pick
Mel Kiper is the Wil E. Coyote of draft time.
Anything he says in the top 20 teams do the opposite. I havent developed a star chart or sought a palm reader to counteract his logic a complete 180 degrees to the actual right answer for each draft pick yet. I believe Pioli will trade down and pick players that fit his scheme not a player that is good at the position a freakin’ college coach thought he would be good at. Hell, they got Brady in the 6th. And whoever thought Deon Branch would be as good as he was. In fact he turned to crap when he left the Patriot system. Pioli will draft smart players that will serve a greater scheme than their outstanding talent in college because the NFL is much different. But dont believe anything I say unless you know it to be from another source.
My dream off season
Terrel Suggs- I would love to get Suggs to play DE if were in 4-3 or whatever in 3-4
Bart Scott- I think that he could play middle in 4-3 and would be awesome if we switched to 3-4
Vilma- The guy can play in 4-3 so if we stay in that we should get him.
This is what i would love to see in the draft….
1st Aarron Curry/ Michael Crabtree
2nd Max Unger Center- Oregon- Can play any position on the line
3rd Paul Kruger- DE- Utah
4th- Rhett Bomar- QB Sam Houston State
5th- Glenn Coffee- Running back- Alabama- not the most dazzliong but can take a workload and be an every down back
6th- Daniel Holtzclaw- ILB he could go higher or lower
7th- BPA

I may not agree with every one of your picks
but you’re a damn sight better that that d-bag Kiper.
I think suggs will be too expesive for Pioli’s taste. I really like Unger in the 2nd.
Rhett Bomar could be a steal this year.
Remember, he would have been OU’s starter this year if he wouldn’t have gotten caught getting money. Many of them do it. He just got caught.
Yes, I'm still alive. Sorry to disappoint you.
Like the Kruger pick
his teammate Greg Newman (DT #56) absolutely tore shit up against Alabama – he’s 6’4" 260, but apparently is strong enough to play tackle – he could also be a freak at DE.
I posted this earlier but
the fanpost went off the board i just want to see what people think of that if we didn’t have any trades and only had the picks we have right now
by IamtheGreatest on Jan 22, 2009 10:25 PM CST reply actions
I think
we can definitely get Unger with as early of a second that we have. Kruger probably will go higher than 3 but i can’t help but wish on that pick. Bomar is intriguing to me because he really has stepped it up but he has been playing qustionable defenses, but I think if you sit him for a year or two you really could have a decent to very good quarterback.

+1
ive been saying shonn green for a while now and would love to see him in a chiefs uniform. get rid of the ballbaby slap your girlfriend then spit in her face loser in LJ and pick up an emotional leader in green
I have us taking a kicker
So there you go…it means as much as Kiper’s crap. Nothing. The man’s not even an evaluator. He goes through the list of players that are ranked and what teams need and puts it in.
He had Detroit taking Stafford….and the reports are the Detroit isn’t going after a QB.
All speculation.
Bill Parcell’s: "You are what your record says you are."
Thigpen WILL NOT be the Chiefs starting QB next year IMO. He can compete for the job and should be 2nd or 3rd string.
like the draft, what detroit says and what they do
are 2 totally different things. i could see the lions going QB. its culpepper and kitna. both injury prone anymore and the other guy (cant spell his name) doesnt even know where hes at on the field.
oh and what i meant
by saying like the draft was mock drafts. its all speculation up to the actual draft so nobody knows what will happen… just to clarify
Can anyone hoenstly say that Sanchez is a good pick at number 3?
Hes a one year wonder and his coach came out and said he wasnt ready. This guy is gonna be Losman 2.0
Bring on Aaron Curry
This is the Chiefs you are talking about
I expect no less from the Cheaps. Oh wait—King Carl is gone! YEAH
KIPER IS A FRICKIN MORON!!!
Sanchez would be a wasted #3 draft pick, Sanchez SHOULD go in the middle to the late second round in my opinion, but the reality is so many teams want a QB than someone will take a chance on him in the 1st round
Pioli doesn’t look for QB in the early rounds, the two QB NE has came in day two draft selection. Pioli is a smart man and has learned alot from Billichek, Kiper IMO is average at best in his figuring out who is going where.
I have no worries about Sanchez becoming the First Round pick of the Chiefs.
