Dont forget hardmans 300 yards and mckinnons over 500 yards receiving

The fact that Mahomes threw to this guy and really wanted him completely changed my view of the pick. This isn't Mahomes watching tape of a RB and thinking he'd be a great fit. This is Mahomes on the field throwing to a guy.

Then throw in nuggets like his explosive 10 and 20 yards splits (fast-twitch guy?) and the fact he played injured and still put up those numbers, and I'm really excited about the guy.

Wow. I never would have guessed Brown was only 6'1. He plays way bigger.

But the thing is that there is no way of knowing if he gave up draft capital for no reason. Veach isn’t a GM that just throws picks out there for no reason. Sure Mims went next, but that doesn’t mean anything. Perhaps Rice was the guy Denver wanted and with him off the board they pivoted. We don’t know what other team’s draft boards look like. There might have been teams looking at snagging Rice, but with him off the board they went in a different direction. To me what isn’t smart is sitting back and hoping the guys you want fall to you and when they don’t you settle for a consolation prize.

Yes, this. Especially when we probably don't have enough holes in our roster for all of our picks anyway.

Good point. I really thought AJ was bigger than 6’1”.

The part that made me a little nervous was that the scouting reports says he loses focus on the field at times. That sounds like bowe too.

But the contested catches thing is something I just really wanted for mahomes. A great way to improve pass protection for mahomes is to give him a bail out and we just didn’t have that. So much of jujus game was to find an open spot and catch and run. So even if he fills the juju role he also does so much more.

Also rice should hopefully be a beast in man coverage.

Now let’s get to work. Let’s expand that route tree and drill hands catching til his hands bleed

His production actually suffers dramatically in man coverage because he struggles to separate, especially when he's pressed which apparently stuck out as an issue during Senior Bowl 1 on 1's.

Guys, I'm tellin' ya. You're going to love this kid.

This has been my thinking also. Why is anybody mad we moved up a few spots to get the man we wanted? Last year we waited and ended up with the leftovers (Moore). This year Veach knew who he wanted and went up and got him (both 2nd and 3rd) without really giving up much. It doesn't matter if there was a player I wanted more; It was who the Chiefs wanted and that is what matters in the end.

Let's hope. Skyy Moore is JAG.

His measurables are almost identical to AJ Brown. They also talked about how tough of a player he is, just like Brown. That's probably a good comparison.

If Mahomie and Bruce Vilanch love this guy, I'm all in.

I like Moore more, i just prioritise separation over contested catch ability But we have a Moore, so perhaps the value is in getting a different type.

Chiefs are obviously drafting to fill specific roles and this guy, as versatile as his snap share is, is probably your prototypical X. He’s got some unique explosive traits with abilities to high point and his short burst is exceptional, but I’m always leery about guys with inconsistent hands and limited route running experience. This kid puts the ball on the ground a lot as well. I think many are putting too much stock in this report about Mahomes throwing to him. I’m sure Patrick loved throwing to a number of these guys but some just were out of reach. Wait and see for me.
