I'm assuming the people filming that were told not to film him.

Now I know DJ has been hacked - I know he doesn't think Moore will go for 1000.

Chiefsplanet members. Rice was just lucky his high school coach gave him the playing time that our coaches refused to give us. Otherwise, we'd be right there - dropping fastballs from Patrick Mahomes, too.

Probably part of it. Everyone was all over the daily routines of Johnston and Flowers. Second round receivers not nearly as sexy.

He did say "someday".

LOLZ


He's pumped. He loves Rice. I do, too. I'm pumped, too.

Of course, I still think Moore is going to be good.

Exactly. But I like the pick.

So you don’t think Mahomes threw him the fastball during the workout?

Great catch radius with those long arms. Will catch passes like a WR 2-3” taller because of that and also help getting off press. Shane Buechele is familiar with him I’m sure. Haven’t looked up if they played a year together or just missed but there’s that connection even being a small one

He got possessed by my spirit for a brief moment.

I love the "Mahomes wanted CEH" bullshit like it's remotely the same thing. He didn't work out with CEH...he just offered his opinion on him. But people have to be ****ing stupid.

I dont know what he threw him or how intense the workout was, do you?

I dont give a flying **** about what happened in a workout. How many training camps do you have to go through where some dude is hyped up the entire time to only turn out to be the shit everyone knew he was?

Just thinking about the Moore Rice formation has me hungry again 2 plays later

Probably not this past year's Offense Player of the Year, all pro WR KC has been linked to acquiring, and a HoF WR. That over the top hyperbole is ridiculous.

Twisted nailed it: this WR class is packed with smaller receivers; we went and got the bigger guy who we think can convert on tough downs. Aka JuJu++. Solid pick.

I haven’t seen a whole lot of the guy. I just want a good wr. If youve seen a lot of him and like him, I’m on board

I think it's just funny when people bring this up. This is the draft -- it's always fun to think about the potential of these players -- and hell, Veach has proven that it's worth doing -- just look at his picks who did end up being the best case scenario.

Or you know, we could be like "what do this guy's numbers look like against JON BALDWIN'S?"

Dude...what are you even talking about? Listen to yourself. Do you think you make sense?

Did you have your mind set on a different player or something?

This is not some shitty practice squad guy.

You're not being reasonable.

I've seen a bunch, I did a deep dive on him about a month ago.

Just watch the first highlight reel in the OP here. It's like three minutes. Watch that, and then you'll have an idea of the kid.

Ok man, what a hill to die on. Go on King. Looking forward to you draft analysis comparing players that nobody has ever heard of to gain more understanding of a draft pick. LMAOLMAO

This WR is in the style of Dante Northcraft!

Who? I dunno...nobody knows look it up in a book.

I thought he was a Patriots fan.

I dont have my heart set on anyone. I dont care to eat sleep and breath college football and dissect the pros and cons of draft prospects for no reason whatsoever.

My only info on the this guy comes from the OP and I've learned he has elite jumping ability to pair with no separation and questionable hands. But, I'm supposed to believe there's no warts, I guess.

He has a lot of contested catches which gives me alarm bells because some guys who get a lot of contested catches just do so because they can't get separation.

But I made that mistake predicting Drake London would be a bust. It's not a perfect theory.

:spock:
Are you ****ing reeruned?
Okay. Let's play your game.
OH MAH GERRRRD. WE DUN DRAFTED JERRY RICE AND RANDY MOSS IN A SINGLE BODY! BESTEST PICK EVARRRRR. Huururrrrrrr

fat**** shithead

Yeah, let me be clear-

I have no idea if Rice will have a Hopkins like career. I'd like to think with Mahomes and Reid he's got about the best situation you could ask for, but shit happens.

When I compare him to Hopkins, I'm saying when you look at his tape, that's the player he most reminds me of. Same size, same style, same aggressiveness going for the ball. He looks like Hopkins.

Just like with Mingo, I watched his tape and thought-He looks and plays just like AJ Brown. I'm not saying he's as GOOD of an NFL receiver as Brown. I'm saying that he's similar size, style, and plays like that type of receiver. He's an AJ Brown-style receiver.

I find it helpful to figure out how guys might fit in a specific offense. That's all.

What's he like? Oh, he's kind of a Hopkins style receiver. To me, I have an idea of what that is.

Apparently he handled enough of them for Mahomes to tell Veach to go get him.

You miss the part where Mahomes was throwing with him or what.

People literally think anybody that has ever dropped a ball has bad hands.

I want to grab Trey Palmer in a later round, that dude is a beast.

Or you could watch the ****ing tape that the OP put right there, and look with your own eyes. Just sayin'.

You're being ridiculous. You've latched on to ONE tweet that somebody said.

ALL of these receivers have warts, that's why they kept saying it was a weak class.

It's not, really, there was just ONE guy in Smith-Nigba that was clearly first tier. All of the rest have questions.

This guy does, too. But your take is silly.

Moss is a good pickup by a team that will continue to get torched by my favorite football team, the Kansas City Chiefs.

Riley...Caseys pizza used to be good, now it sucks.

Literally nobody is doing that.

I am sorry you are so mad and can't understand comparing someone to Jerry Rice does not mean they think they will be a HOF and one of the best WR of all times it means that NFL players exhibit certain styles and traits and those are things you can see and compare amongst different players.

This is the most simple thing in the world that everyone understands but you.

Rice played 2019-20 as a freshman and sophomore with Buchele

I don’t hate this.

That isn’t the issue. From the sound of it dude has a habit of catching with his body which is different. Hopefully plenty coachable

You'll have to forgive me for not putting much stock in highlight reels from the American Athletic Conference.

So, firsthand experience throwing to the player by the TWO TIME league MVP and TWO TIME superbowl MVP is just to be discarded then. Means nothing, in your view.

Either you're being intentionally obtuse to annoy some folks, or you're exceptionally ****ing reeruned.

I'd suggest trolling elsewhere and perhaps with better technique.

Or, if you really believe what you're posting, simply drink some antifreeze and lie down in the corner.

Correct me if Im wrong but I seem to recall Mahomes wanting them to draft CEH. They did. Wanted them to draft Skyy. They did. Now he wanted them to draft this guy. Mahomes GM

I think he has good NFL potential with his strength being jump balls. That said, I don't think a jump ball receiver is the best fit for Mahomes. Would probably be a better fit for another QB/team.

but you will a tweet?

I mean, you can literally watch the kid for a few minutes, or you can read one tweet while dismissing other tweets that say they like the kid.

Watch the kid play, man. Then listen to what Mahomes said. And what Veach says. And maybe give that all more weight than some dipshit that's twatting.

Well, apparently Mahomes feels differently.

What tweet do you keep referencing? I literally told your dumbass the info I've received on this guy came from the OP.

Not while Detroit was on the clock but after or before you could guess they could find out what they are asking for the RB Swift if KC is interested which who knows

“I think I know football better than Veach and Mahomes.”

That’s what some of you sound like. Is that the role you want to play?

If you would WATCH THE ****ING TAPE you'll wonder what the **** that numbnuts was even talking about in that tweet. Morons tweet. Just because some asshole had an opinion doesn't mean it's right.

Rice attacks the ball with his hands, he's not a body clutcher.

You have no idea what you're talking about.

fun fact: the only player the Chiefs drafted in the 1st round that I was 90% sure was going to be a bust was Baldwin. That really pissed some people off 'round here tho.

The Skyy Moore one is news to me I don't think that happened

No shit. Mahomes ain’t calling all our draft picks to immediately congrat and welcome to the team.

He will break every Jerry Rice record

Oh, okay, so casual comparisons is what we're referring to? Ahh, I see. So Rice once wore a number that was shared by a Hall of Fame NFL wide receiver? COMPARES TO THAT GUY!!!1!

Got it.

Breathes air... "compares to _______". BOOM! Amazeballs.
Once wore red... "next Jerry Rice!!!" *gasp, swoon*

OR... wait for it... you can NOT be a hyperbolic bitch and try to be realistic.

Bottom line, Veach, Reid, and Company have been A M A Z I N G. They deserve total and complete trust... unlike dumbshits posting online (present company included - including myself here).

Zach must have never watched Jerry Rice because I don't see it in the film of Rashee Rice.

They got the same last name and play same position though

Risky throws in workouts don't cost anything. Risky throws in games can cost a lot. Since Mahomes' bad INT stretch he has become much more stingy with those types of throws.

I'm not claim8ng that's Rice's only value. Bit it does seem to be his strength and I just don't think Mahomes is going to throw him a lot off balls that require him to make contested catches.

You are so mad over a thing that everyone else does and thinks is fine but you because you don't understand it.

It is hilarious.

Dude. What the ****?

Do you not see a player's size and playing style and compare it to other guys?

I mean, Tyreek Hill is nothing like Jerry Rice. AJ Brown nothing like Deandre Hopkins.

So as an explanation when someone asks what a player they haven't seen is like, you pick a guy who's got a similar style and use that as a comp.

You're acting like that's ridiculous, but it's really not. Nobody's saying they're going to be as successful in the NFL, they're just saying this is the "TYPE" of player.

Nothing to do with ****ing uniform colors or whatever. This is dumb.

Boy, it is tiring explaining simple things to you.

I am not saying our new draft pick is like Jerry Rice.

he's just mad that wide receivers with the last name Rice exist and wants to be a victim, amiright

Yeah, you should probably get with Mahomes and tell him that. I'm sure he'd be grateful for the pointer, uncle Rico.

<iframe width="640" height="360" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/tW_WA24MMFE" title="Patrick Mahomes places a phone call to Rashee Rice." frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen></iframe>

I should hope not, there's nothing about his game that is even remotely similar to Jerry Rice.

It is great. He thinks when you compare players to other players you should reference...I don't know....bad players that nobody has heard of?

He absolutely going to die on this hill and nobody else understands why? Everyone does these comparisons it seems he is just too stupid to understand what people are saying when they do so.

DeMarcus Robinson once 'Moss'd' a Raiders DB. If you see that highlight you'd be like "damn he plays like Randy Moss"

I see size, speed, measurements can be equated, for sure. What I think is ridiculous is thinking "this guy is same size as ______" = obvious comp. It is ridiculous. FFS, Justin Jefferson was the NFL Offensive Player of the Year. D'Andre Hopkins is a legitimate NFL all-pro year after year. ROD SMITH is a Hall of Famer. These are the guys to which this second round pick out of SMU, that few had on their draft board this high btw, are being compared. Come on. Bruh. The breathless hyperbole is ridiculous. That is all I have pointed out, yet fatass zach thinks "nah, that's not hyperbole, it's totally legit to comapre this kid out of a Div 2 (arguably) school = comparable to a Hall of Fame player".

Yeah I don't really need affirmation on my opinion from Mahomes. It's just a simple opinion that I could be proven wrong on. And to be honest, Mahomes is an exceptional QB, that doesn't make him an exceptional talent scout. Case in point, CEH. So it's not like it's some type of mic drop that Mahomes likes the guy.

Rod Smith?

Shit! This guy must ****ing suck!

People are comparing players and you are banging your hooves against your keyboard crying about it. :)

CEH was basically Barry Sanders here on that draft day. I wait to see them play in the NFL before I really make any judgements. There's still hope for Skyy Moore turning into prime AB because AB also had 200 yards his rookie season tho ;)

You're so insightful. No other dumb**** in this thread has brought that up yet. Just you. That's an original thought. Yep. You're Sherlock ****ing Holmes.

It seems to be a huge focus of his game which will be great to see.

:D
You know we'd have loved that guy in KC, but yeah, **** Rod Smith.

Nah not if the opposing DC decides matching up a 5'7 150 pound dude against him is the way to lock him down.

I'm with your mom at a Hyatt. Will that do?

LMAO

There's like 6-8 hardcore draft nerds on the board, right?

And to a person each of them love this pick and most were on the player WELL before some of the media sorts were.

I'll take the wisdom of that particular crowd over...well, the other guys in this thread....100 times out of 100.

Does he have Hopkins' hands? I think his best trait is that he rarely drops a pass. If Rice is even close to that, this is an outstanding pick.

I think this is a good point and 10 and 20 yard dash is probably more "football speed" than the 40.

I think when you take a step back and study Rice more, you'll realize all the good things Rice does that Hyatt doesn't.

Hyatt is a good player, but aint Waddle or D.Smith. He's Mecole Hardman.

And when you do that, you're gonna love the pick. Trust, this kid is gonna be a Star.

It's more than measurements, it's playing style.

When you watch some Rice tape, he does Hopkins things. The high-pointing the ball. The fighting through contact for the catch. The stuff Hopkins did in Houston that made people think Deshaun Watson was good. You see Rice do those things.

The run after catch stuff. He's an extremely similar skillset.

No, I'm not saying he's going to be as successful in the NFL as Hopkins, but I can tell you he's a very similar TYPE of receiver with a lot of the same ATTRIBUTES. He's of that style. Not a Hill, not a Waddle, not a DK Metcalf. He's like a Hopkins-type receiver.

Now, he's going to have to clean up his routes, like almost every draftee, and he sometimes has the dropsies on easy catches, which tells me he's trying to run before securing the ball. But these aren't unfixable flaws. The raw material is there.

Without them, he's a top ten pick.

I'll take my chances with Reid, Nagy, and Mahomes to get his best football out of him.

Great take. I hope you are spot on. 100% re: Reid, Nagy, and Mahomes maximizing this kid's potential.

Wasn’t my first choice, but I’m talking myself into it.

What is there for me to be upset about? I want to rage but just can’t muster it when we got a guy pat practiced with and recommended at a position of need

Mahomes wanted Moore?
