Well, if this wasn’t depressing for Chiefs fans, I don’t know what is.

Looking back at the last ten quarterbacks the Kansas City Chiefs have taken in the draft, it takes us all the way back to 1989. That’s insane.

It’s always a surprise when the Chiefs draft a quarterback, even if it’s late in the process. I can’t imagine the reaction around Kansas City if the Chiefs were to draft a signal caller before the fourth round. It hasn’t happened in over a decade.

This track record shows that the Chiefs have had absolutely no luck when drafting a quarterback. They’ve struck out a lot, but that can’t keep preventing them from trying.

With guys like DeShone Kizer, Patrick Mahomes, Mitch Trubisky, and Deshaun Watson available as the top quarterback prospects in this year’s draft, the Kansas City Chiefs need to try to lock down one of these guys in the first round of the 2017 NFL Draft.
