After taking the night and this morning to sit and analyze our draft and off season thus far, I had a thought. I know this is contrary to what our off season philosophy is but maybe Poles feels that considering the resources that we have available that the biggest impact that could be made to improve the team this year was to improve our inefficiencies on defense rather than on offense. The resource needed to make a big impact on offense are going to be considerable so rather than spending those resources on a couple of impact players on offense he felt that we could spend those resources on defense on more positions and have plug an play players on day one. Maybe he wanted to solidify one side of the ball and will attack the other side of the ball when he has much more ammo to throw at it. I'm not sure how much I agree with this but maybe this is how he is looking at it. No. At least not according to him. Poles said he was staying disciplined and true to his board. He said drafting need is a mistake. He is going BPA, his BPA. I admire it. Obviously I have been critical of him and positive. But I admire the philosophy and agree with it. The draft part of his GM philosophy anyway. Not that I agree with all picks, but the philosophy I agree with. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A real possibility Poles is trying to show he's the smartest guy in the room. Smacks of Jerry Angelo. Very concerning. Hopefully it works. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I love good route runners. But I can’t remember who said it (sooo many posts this weekend ) but I think they nailed it. We are going with the Chiefs plan, find specific hard to find traits. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
