Chiefs press conference on Tyreek Hill
Starting a whole new thread about this because I think it's a pretty important to get the justification and story from the people who made the pick. Was posted in the original thread, but I know it's going to get lost in the still vibrant discussion.
Basically, Dorsey would normally let his scout team handle questions about the last day so he can do UDFA stuff, but he felt he needed to address the press and media about it before too many stories got carried away. So they spent basically a full 20 minutes discussing the morality of picking somebody like Hill. http://www.chiefs.com/media-center/v...c-90e1d8adc228 For people who don't really care to listen, Dorsey and Reid basically give a single answer: "We've done our homework, so please trust us." Props go to Terez Paylor for asking the tough and pointed questions about this. He's got some balls as a journalist that I've never seen out of the KC Star. |

Perhaps the question we should attempt to answer is what is an acceptable level of domestic violence? What are fans willing to tolerate, and does your tolerance escalate with the player's talent level?

But as usual, the Chiefs dragged me back in after Week One and I bought it. I'm not going to boycott it over this selection but I'm not thrilled about this guy, at all. |

Well, Toub apparently did invoke the name Devin Hester and basically said he's the best returner he's seen in the better part of a decade. I get the feeling that if we see Dante Hall level production from this kid on returns that 90% of the fanbase will embrace him...

This isn't so easy. Do you forgive and give the guy a second chance? Maybe with some support he becomes a productive member of society. Or maybe he is just a scumbag. No doubt the Chiefs are only going to give him a chance because he has talent. I think I would forgive and give the chance along with the shortest leash in the history of leashes.
