Who should we trade for if Rice is out? (https://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/showthread.php?t=355220)

If we’re just throwing shit at the wall, I think Arizona is another interesting one to monitor. Zay jones could be an interesting move and a real interesting complement to Hollywood. Checks a lot of boxes…. Arizona isn’t gonna be competitive this year and may want to focus on their young WRs, 1-year deal, played in pedersons offense. He’d be a cheap as hell bandaid that is definitely better than the back of our depth chart

https://www.espn.com/nfl/team/depth/_/name/kc

If JuJu misses time or somehow has a season-ending injury, JWat effectively becomes the WR1, and he's a nice guy that every 4-5 games has a great play, but he's literally only worth about 3-4 targets/gm.

Sky/Mecole is starting in JJSS place, and neither of those two are worth more than 3-4 targets/gm. Skyy's not even worth that.

And then it's Worthy, who's recently bumped up to about 5 targets/gm.

And that's it. Those are our remaining WRs unless we call someone up from the PS. And we already know that the guys we have on the PS aren't ready. We're razor thing at WR right now, and that is unacceptable.

We need a quality WR, not some place-holder or project, but a real live actual high-production veteran WR that can absorb the playbook in the least amount of time possible to effectively replace Rashee's role/production. Not some undersized speedster that's going to get hurt after a few games of going over the middle, but a full-sized, full-route tree, high IQ receiver that opposing DCs have to account for every snap.

All that said, I have my doubts whether we see one of those enter the building.

Thank you. We have to bring some WRs in. The only other option is to elevate Remigio and/or Washington. Skyy is obviously not doing anything and while Hardman could shoulder additional work he has shown that he isn’t capable of being more than a #3.

When Chiefs do something’s it’s very secretive or in this case, do nothing at all.

I’ll be surprised if we traded for a WR.

He isnt just going to give up after that. We may have something big happening afterall.

Stay tuned boys...

In fact, I would argue that puts Tyreek in play!!

I'm not sure how MIA can possibly save face by sending him back to us for less than they paid though.

They Paid: 1st, 2nd, 4th, 5th, 6th

We'd Offer: ?

3rd. Tyreek was 27 when we traded him. He's 30 now. It doesn't matter cause there is no way, but if we're gonna have this crazy talk.

"I'm definitely happy for Davante (Adams) teaming back up with his old quarterback -- I know that's obviously where he wanted to be." - Tyreek

Uh huh! I see you Tyreek! ...He's practically begging for a trade.

I'd trade him a 1st and a 4th. I don't give a shit. Then we have him for two years for two more runs. Reset in 2026 to restart the franchise. Don't know how the financials would/could work, though.

That's a fair offer. I feel like they'd want our 1st and 3rd, which is essentially a 4th. Adams went for a 3rd that could become a 2nd, and he's only 1 year older so we may both be overvaluing him. How'bout a 2nd that could become a 1st (3-Peat Contingent), plus a 3rd for 5th pick swap to sweeten the deal... what'ya say Mike McDaniels?
