A.A.D.Q.: A Smorgasbord Of First-Day Picks?

by AADQ

This Old Chief just called me up and told me that he heard on the radio this morning that the Browns asked the Chiefs for two first-rounders and two second-rounders in exchange for Brady Quinn. Thanks, but no thanks. I actually like Brady Quinn, but not for any price steeper than one first and a second-day pick.

What does everybody else think about this rumor? Would you have pulled the trigger on this deal?

But J.T. will get a new contract since he replaced their starter.
I will also jump on the Losman wagon. He may not be the qb of the future here but he could be the qb for right now; and who knows he may just turn out great. At this point we are getting pretty desperate. We can't suffer through a full season of Thiggy

JT O'Sullivan will be UFA next year too.

I think him being a FA is exactly the reason to bring in Losman. The Bills would rather take like a fourth- or fifth-rounder than be stuck with nada. Trent Edwards is their guy. Meanwhile, we'd have a legitimate prospect on our roster and a leg up on signing him if he worked out. If we didn't see enough to warrant keeping him, then we'd let him go. We wouldn't have to splurge on a high-draft pick or even a decent contract on him, that is unless he played his way to a payday. Make sense?

right now he's sitting behind Rogers and Flynn. Surely it wouldnt take alot to pick up their 3rd stringer.

Whats the chance we could get Brohm?

If Brodie Croyle is bud light, Losman is Budweiser. A little more experience, big arm big hair and no game.

Regarding my comments about the Browns, I said I consider most of them busts. Joe Thomas is not a bust, lets not put him in the HOF just yet tho bc the Browns running game is horrid. I was mostly trying to illustrate how the Chiefs and Browns are similar in thier ineptitude and KC had a team from 96-99 ...Cleveland did not!

YEAR Rd. NAME
1999 1 Tim Couch QB Kentucky BUST
2000 1 Courtney Brown DE Penn State BUST
2001 3 Gerard Warren DT Florida A few goodyears BUST
2002 16 William Green RB Boston C. BUST
2003 21 Jeff Faine C Notre Dame NEW TEAM
2004 6 Kellen Winslow II TE GOOD WHEN NOT INJURED
2005 3 Braylon Edwards WR Michigan DITTO
2006 13 Kamerion Wimbley LB Fl.State Some promise
2007 3 Joe Thomas OT Wisconsin OK OK
2007 22 Brady Quinn QB Notre Dame ?

Whats sad is follow some of the news from Oakland, those fans are ready to drink the kool aid and they stomped a mud hole in OUR BUTTS!!

The last time I saw Carl P in person was at last years Oakland home game and he got boo'd off the fleld. Pretty bad when the GM cant show his face at a home game without getting drilled by D-Cells.

If they would try a lil change for once, put the Gonj and B Rich on the right side we may already have an answer to our line problem. Obviously Herm doesnt support Obama's idea for change.

What is this BS about selecting an O-Lineman early? We have our franchise LT. You don't select a RT or an interior lineman with a first round pick, let alone a top 5 pick. And no, don't trade for a guy who is a UFA in the offseason. Wait until the offseason. If we're making a trade for a QB of all positions, I at least want to have him around for a couple of seasons.

Ok lets get JP very good thoughts X

The Bills had Lynch, Evans, and TE's who are not even close to comparable with Tony G. I think Losman would relish having a chance to come here. Hell I'd even give a 2nd rounder for him if that's the ultimate price to pay. To know we actually have a QB, not a QB-pretender (or a constantly broken QB, which is sad to say, I liked Brodie.. kind of.) Damon just isn't going to hack it. We may keep him next year as an insurance policy for Losman (should this trade go through) but realistically he's done after that.

Hell, if we want, I'd even be fine with waiting until after the season until Losman is a free agent, signing him to a 2-3 year deal, drafting a lineman high, and then trading up for a MLB (Maualuga, hopefully,) and then giving Losman the offseason to get acclimated with our vocabulary and offensive schemes. When teams can't key up on the run EVERY play (Losman had plenty of deep balls thrown, when he played,) LJ should get going. If LJ is going, playaction is also going, and it's a win/win situation. With more experience to our younger guys in JamChar, Cottam (yikes, the Brodie Croyle of tight ends, who also has the same initials, BC. Just say no to BC!) an even more-improved line, and hopefully better coaching.. Our O will look totally different. As long as it isn't diagnosed with Chancer.

A 2nd rounder is one thing, but I think we could get him for a 3rd this year, and maybe a 5th or so in 2010. That's a cheap price to pay for a QB who played well with LESSER weapons in Bufallo. The Bills have certainly embraced Trent Edwards, and with him coming along nicely, and their team doing really well this year, they might be willing to part with Losman cheaper than we think, and turn around and use one of those picks on a new QB to stick on the depth chart. It's worth thinking about, anyway.

well the Chargers are walking all over the jets so maybe a qb isnt everything

Nothing wrong with trying to develop a young qb but for GODS sake have a veteran too. And not a shell shocked one like Huard.

6. Herm Edwards, Kansas City — The Chiefs are on a franchise-worst 11-game losing streak, and things have gotten so bad these days that they’re losing to the Raiders by 15 points. At home. With Oakland quarterback JaMarcus Russell completing all of six passes. In fact, with reports swirling that Raiders coach Lane Kiffin would be fired after Sunday’s game, and then that not being the case, it now appears that losing to the Chiefs has become grounds for dismissal. Quick, somebody tell rookie Falcons head coach Mike Smith it’s win or else this week at home against K.C.

They might have had a great 2008 draft, but I look for the Chiefs to battle it out all season with the Rams (nice football state, Missouri) and maybe the Bengals for the distinction of being the NFL’s worst team. They’ve got no quarterbacking, a disgruntled and unreliable lead running back in Larry “Me-first” Johnson, and the look of a team that’s in the deepest darkest stages of a years-long rebuilding program.

Edwards’ fate is pretty clearly tied to the question of whether team owner Clark Hunt finally ends the tenure of long-time Chiefs general manager Carl Peterson, who has served in his capacity 20 seasons without delivering even a Super Bowl appearance. For that matter, Kansas City hasn’t won a playoff game since 1993. If “King Carl” survives yet again, so will Edwards. But if Hunt pulls the plug on Peterson, the new GM customarily gets to hire a head coach of his choosing. And that could end Edwards’ three-year K.C. tenure.

• Pink slip potential: 60 percent.

If he heals properly that shoulder bone is scary.

If we're gonna talk about retreads, why not discuss Alex Smith? Free agent next summer, he's gonna come cheap.

ROC, I'll be making my annual pilgrimage from LA down to SD this year for the game as well. Where you sitting? I'll 12 rows up from our bench wearing my DJ jersey. Btw, I love how last year we had the national anthem ending the way its supposed to down there.

Watching the first game last year and the Green Bay game at Arrowhead was unreal and an experience I will never forget. Watching the season opener this year makes me literally want to cry. Go to youtube and type in "arrowhead volume 1" then get out the kleenex box.

Last year we had a full house at the season opener. This year the ones that showed were folks that were given the tickets and people that had their seats since the eighties.

I went to the Raiders game, That was a HUGE disappointment. I mean it was great just bein there but Ive been there twice and watched em lose both games.

Yo, CSMQB!

Yeah, I've been here just havent been commenting much. But now theres crap to talk about... Like how bad we suck and how bad we need a new QB.

Yeah, man... I'm going to the KC vs SD game. You should try to come out here. You, me, and my girl would be the only red dots in a sea of baby blue...

Jk... Actually last year, there were tons of KC fans. I was suprised.

We got no chance now.

How about this Favre character?

Wsup ROC, its been awhile, How's Cali. Im still comin sometime so you can show me your stompin ground.

Adam, can you start a post askin everyone who realistically we should try to persue. I think we need to take this one big.

Crap.. Warner is old though... Unless we offer a trade they cant refuse.

I'm telling you guys. AZ made it clear that Leinart is not the guy for that organization... Lets get Matt Leinart in the Red and Gold. He played good in those colors a few years ago. I think he's what we need. He can throw the ball well, he's big, and can take a lick here and there. We should get him.

Now there is an idea wonder what JP would cost us? New York would probably rip us Indians off with some beads again.

Adam, Zach, I have to apologize, I was a Brodie backer and now Ive seen the light, lol, We dont have a NFL QB on our roster.

Losman is someone to check out. He is a free agent after this season.

I cant just sit and watch OUR team, yea we made that team, us as the fans, I cant watch another wasted season.

It dont have to be Leinart, I just want all of us to pick someone and go beyond chatter.

Its kool, i wasnt tryin to correct you. I dont think he's our guy though.

Matt Leinart will not be available. Kurt Warner is 37 years old, and Whisenhunt still likes Leinart. There will be no campaign for Leinart, at least from me anyway. I'm still on my Vick kick. Just getting started actually. I do, however, like xxxlp's J.P. Losman suggestion. We should try to trade Huard for him today.

Well we need a guy who can take being jacked up for awhile. A guy like Jaworski was.

Yes sorry Brodie, kind of mixed Brady and Brodie there.

Lets all be realistic and pick one guy and we are gonna do this thing.

Im glad you guys are all here. I dont think I could handle this season without you all to help get through it. LOL. They heard our voices about Cowher and Vick. They heard our voices about Quinn. Let our voices be heard. Lets pick a guy and go nation wide.

Herm is a defensive guy so he doesnt think the offense works hard and thinks that quarterbacks are overpaid and over rated.

Who Brodie? I think thats what they are doing. He stii cant stay healthy. Its time for someone whose gonna shine. For more than a few games.

I dont know last year I saw Brody throw a touchdown pass through light coverage. I think we should center our entire offense around him and leverage the franchise future around him.

Its obvious they are starting to see that we need to do something. I cant believe Martin hasnt even played in a game and is already injured. we definately dont need another one of those. I think anybody whose been mentioned here would fill our need

And by the way... All of us here know that when we get a good running game going, that opens the passing game... And THATS how a good QB can become a great QB.

I Request a Matt Leinart Campaign to get under way.

I think Leinart would be someone to look at too. He definately hasnt played up to his potential in Arizona.
