Not that he isn't going to be a damn good player - he will be. A probable All-Pro.

But Nabers was a better pick there.

When they picked Alt I breathed a sigh of relief because I really didn't want to deal with Nabers in this division for a decade. That kid is going to be spectacular.

Both nabers and alt are likely to be all pro. Nabers will certainly be the more spectacular.

But I think for the kind of team Harbaugh is trying to build Alt was the better pic. But I also agree that doesn’t make nearly as much sense if they let Slater go next year.

That doesn’t mean that he is better than Andy or that they are better than our Super Bowl team, which is going to repeat

But it’s a little bit weird how some posters here won’t recognize progress by other teams and when someone mentions such progress when it is obviously true, it is taken as disrespecting the chiefs somehow. And then the hate comes out.

I think Harbaugh is an upgrade at HC. It's just that media likes to try to crown them before they have done anything. That's probably what makes many Chiefs fans disrespect them.
