It's really interesting to see how many first-rounders there are starting. If Culpepper comes back it will be one more, and with Tom Brady and Brady Quinn it could/should be another two after that. The only real other option is a winning lottery ticket (late-rounder or free agent) or drafting a second-rounder out of Purdue. Nice post, old man.

Tampa has a strong defense but it IS a very basic defense and that will be good for Thiggy....He does practice against a FORM of it everyday... I hope he can get us in the draft position where it wont be a reach to take Maualuga or Laurinitis...You can say we need a pass rusher all you want but no one will even drop back for a pass attempt if they can just run all over us (and unless you are Eric Mangina) The first thing is first and that is to stop the run. We are gonna have to take care of what we can with young Free Agents, too...if we neglect that again Chiefs Nation should be pissed... that is all...

What we need to see Thiggy do now is show that he can read the NFL coverage schemes, make smart decisions, and lead the other 10 guys on the field. He has proven that for one week, but now he must show consistency. I feel that Tyler Thigpen deserves a place on this roster next season, if only as our second stringer. But I am high on this kid's potential. If he can do the right things with this team in the remaining eight weeks and showcase what he is capable of, Tyler Thigpen could earn himself the starting job for 2009. I really hope he does. If we can avoid having to draft a QB high in the draft, we can fix the glaring defensive needs of MLB and Pass Rushing DE.

Defense. I hope he does well, I am ready to jump on the Thigpen bandwagon. I am anxious to see what the Thig can do on Sunday against a potent T.B. Defense.
