Lets just see what kind of young talent Vermeil left us with.

 2005

Derrick Johnson     A

Duction Colquitt     A

Craphonso Thorpe     F

Boomer Grisby     D

Alphonso Hodge     F

Will Svitek     D

Khari Long     F

James Kilian     F

Jeremy Parquet     F

2004

Junior Siavii     F

Kris Wilson     D

Keyeran Fox     D

Samie Parker     D

Jared Allen     A

Jeris Mcintyre     F

Kevin Sampson     F

2003

Larry Johnson     A

Kawika Mitchell     C

Julian Battle     F

Brett Williams     F

Jordan Black     F

Jimmy Wilkerson     C

Jontique Sharpe     F

Willie Pile     F

2002

Ryan Sims    F

Eddie Freeman     F

Omar Easy     F

Scott Fujita     C

Maurice Rodriguez     F

2001

Eric Downing     F

Marvin Minnis    F

Monty Beisel     D

George Layne     F

Billy Barber     F

Derrick Blaylock     D

Alex Sulfsted     F

Shaunard Harts     F

Terdell Sands     F

 

A's - 4

B's - 0

C's - 3

D's - 7

F's - 24

13 - number of draft picks traded away in that time.  This is a big one.

4 out of 38 - number of players contributing this season.  I counted Allen because of the picks we got for him.  Also LJ wasn't not a Vermeil Pick he didn't want him.  That takes away one of the A's.  One of them is the punter.  The other is DJ.

There are probably a few more C's in there and maybe a couple of B's, but I took into account is the player even on the team anymore.

I think this is enough evidence Herm needs some time to rebuild.

Yeah, we can bash Herm all we want, but my hell lookat what he started with.  I agree, if we even show mimnimal improvement this year, Herm needs more time to put his team together.  I'm sure the Herm haters will bash him and blame him, but he's definitely on the right track.  Good post!

Why no love for Samie Parker? I'd give him a C. He isn't THAT bad. But anyways the Vermeil draft era was pretty pathetic without a doubt.

Parker was one of the ones I meant by adding this.  Plus I hated his celbrations after a routine catcd followed by bad drops.

How bad were his Drafts? CBS didn't even recongize half the drafties. All those names and you only scored a 75?

Good post.

I agree with most of the grades but you've gotta give Kawicka Mitchell at least a B. He's been a starter for 4 years in a row including for the Super Bowl champs last year.

You also can't blame Vermeil for the draft picks if you say on the one hand that he didn't want to draft Larry Johnson. It proves that King Carl has final say on draft picks and if you go thru alot more years, you'll notice that most of our drafts have stunk.

When the Chiefs were good in the 90's they struck gold with F/A's like Saleaumua, Joe Phillips, Chris Martin, Marcus Allen, Joe Montana,James Hasty,Barry Word,J.J Birden, Willie Davis, Rich Gannon among others.

Vermiel would be great as an offensive advisor or maybe coordinator. He had our offense going great, and so he tried to grab some defensive players in the draft to help. But he had mostly washouts, and big ones at that. Junior Saviia and Ryan Simms. He also traded away a 1st rounder (I am not positive on this) for Trent Green. So there were alot of picks that gave us nothing.
