I doubt he makes the team either.

I'd rather have a naked Justyn Ross line up than Skyy Moore.

Moore is so down the list that Kyle Sheets is like, "damn i think i can take this foo's job".

Don't misunderstand- if it were up to me, Skyy would be the first WR cut. He's not big, he's not fast, he has shit for brains and stones for hands. *I* would cut him.

I'm just saying the Chiefs may not cut him and the reason may be "experience."

Won't help him a bit.

The only way he makes the team is if it was just a fait accompli.

Because Remigio, Ross and Washington all bring more to this football team than Moore. Or Irv Smith. To say nothing of Hardman, Watson and Toney.

There is no 'there' there. At all.

I'd carry 5 WRs and an extra LB or Safety for special teams purposes before I carried Moore.

So who's being cut for him because that's where it gets kinda sketchy?

Is it only 3 TE's so Irv Smith is out?

Is Remigio out?

Keeping Toney makes more sense, I can at least see the rationale there.

Nah. That "experience" ship sailed already. That shit mighta flown last year, but this year we have enough guys who've been in the system, or are vets.

If they carry 7 Wrs and 3 TEs, I think Ross makes it because Ross is at least a bigger body for the red zone - a body you've lost by cutting (presumably) Irv Smith. If you have Irv Smith you really don't need Ross.

If you don't have Smith, you kinda want Ross around, though.

So even without Smith you can go 7 deep (Brown, Rice, Worthy, Watson, Toney, Hardman, Ross) and still not get to Moore. And then if Rice gets suspended AND you drop Smith, you STILL go 7 deep (Brown, Worthy, Watson, Toney, Hardman, Ross, Remigio) before you get to Moore.

In any remotely sane world, the guy is ****ing done.

Oh dear. But he's such a nice boy.

Then will they IR him to be nice?

I still say he gets dealt to some team with crappy WR's for a late pick...like Buffalo.

Right?!?

I mean when you start to look at it, there's just no way to get the guy on this team unless you're getting rid of dudes that have an actual role here or have actually shown something in practice.

You have to just say "**** it, I'm not cutting a 2nd round pick" if you keep him.

And we've CUT a 2nd round pick with no viable role coming into his 3rd season in the Veach era.

If you IR him before cuts, you can't bring him back. In which case, why bother? So you can pay him an NFL salary (and carry the cap charge) to no purpose?

And if you carry him through cuts then IR him, you have to risk losing someone better than him.

No, that idea is also pretty terrible.

Just cut him and be done with it. What are we doing here?

Heh, well being nice and a nickel is gonna get him a hot cup of jack squat

I mean I think he's toast.

I think the better debate is Kadarious Toney.

Skyy Moore has damn near matched the entire production Ross has managed in his entire career in one game against the Chargers. The correct answer is don't keep either but Ross is infinitely more worthless than Moore.

Only scenario I can see Skyy making the team.

7 Wrs and 4 TEs (which would be stupid, but we're spitballing here)

You don't need Ross because you kept Irv Smith.

Rashee Rice has a suspension announced before cuts.

So you have your 4 TEs and no Rice, but don't need Ross because you have plenty of red zone bulk from your TE room.

Brown, Worthy, Hardman, Watson, Toney, Remigio, Moore

And even in that world, Moore is a gameday inactive who's eventually cut when Rice's suspension ends.

FIRST ROUND TALENT!!!!

(I'm sorry, I've lost track of which shitty bottom of the roster receiver I'm dumping on at the moment)

All this shit has taught me is when you draft a WR bet on traits. Even if the gy doesn't really pan out you can use his elite trait, Hardman is a good example, where when you take a guy like Skyy Moore if it doesn't work out he's useless.

Top four WR are locked in
Rice
Brown
Worthy
Watson

You get two more out of this group
Hardman
Toney
Remigio
Ross
Washington
Moore

Best guess as of 5 August in bold. Of course, that may change in the next month depending on preseason performance.

Wonder if Veach can get anything in trade for any of these dudes...

I know you said don't keep either, but I gotta disagree. Like DJ said, Ross actually does something.

I think it’s remigio. He is the guy they wanted skyy to be. A dude who can catch a lot of short stuff and get some YAC. I think they are more married to the role skyy would play than skyy himself. I feel like hardman would be the other even though he feels a lot less necessary now that we have worthy and Hollywood.

What? What has Ross done? What does Ross ACTUALLY do?

If you can replace Moore with a UDFA and get the production you wanted that's a win...

I'm going to disagree with you on the comparison of Brown, Worthy and Hardman. Hardman has a lot more gadget and horizontal stretch to what he does, it's a role that helps the offense.

It's just his body type, he's different than the rest of the room.

He's somewhat big and can fight for jump balls.

It ain't much, but it's more than Skyy can do.

If you take anything from this season's training camp, Ross helps with red zone packages.

The Chiefs weren't very efficient in the red zone last season. Ross is 6'4" and might be able to help with that. There are at least a couple of videos of him catching touchdowns in the back corner of the end zone in the last couple of weeks.

In theory, yes. In actuality he's either too broken or too busy doing stupid shit to get himself suspended to actually accomplish anything.

Other than Mahomes doesn't really throw jump balls.

Yeah I get that. I just don’t think it’s the necessity it was last year now that we have 2 guys who are going to stretch the field like crazy. But I bet hardman is safe since they signed him even after picking both these guys up.

It’s also why they’ll keep skyy or remigio. I think skyy is useless in the role but they’ll want to keep a short yardage catch and run guy in their back pocket. Especially with how much we’re gonna stretch the field. And that to me makes these slot options more valuable than an outside guy like Ross.

I think they'll want to keep Remigio, but who knows.

I thought he looked really good today in camp so he may get 1 more shot. Not a fan at all, but he made some nice plays today.

I read an article earlier today that said Andy came out and said they have 'big plans' for Skyy this season. So, I guess that, along with what Petro said, must mean we're keeping Skyy another year. I figured, but it is disappointing. I hope whatever those big plans are, Skyy finds a way to meet their/out expectations. One last chance, Skyy, make it a good one.

Remember when a second round pick under King Carl was an automatic failure?

:LOL:

It's going to be a sad day when the roster is released and this piece of shite is still on it.

MFer. I thought this was a “we cut him early” bump.

I have a bad feeling he's going to make it.

I can't imagine him having too big of plans with the depth we have at that position.

He's just too small and has too bad of hands to be a great route runner and not fast enough to be a speed guy. For gadget plays he is OK but that's pretty much his limit.

Hopefully I'm wrong but I just don't see any type of real potential with this kid.

They made a couple of mentions on the broadcast how he knows all the receiver positions and can play special teams......


*ducks rotten veggies thrown by DJLN*

Nobody sets the edge like Skyy Moore

Skyy:

https://y.yarn.co/284fa6af-4511-49f1...ecced_text.gif

Best case scenario… he doesn’t see the field week one, Hollywood comes back week two and the Chiefs have six healthy WR’s again and dump him.

Congrats Skyy!!

This man is invincible.

He is immortal.

He defies logic.

He is the universe.

He is… Skyy!

You almost have to be in awe of how he somehow made the final 53.

Terrible season last year.

Did nothing to distinguish himself this offseason.

Played 31 offensive snaps without even a target in the preseason.

And still finds himself to be a Chief.

His mom should've named him wind.

There’s gotta be someone on the street better than CEH right? He averaged 3.2 yards per carry last year. He’s washed.

lol, dude is a cockroach. Just won’t go away. Welp, guess we get one more season to watch him do nothing.

The future answer to the trivia question:

“Who is the worst player to win 10 super bowls?”

All those times he showed up to Mahomes’ offseason camp paid off! Good luck this year Sky!

He’s the NFL’s Mark Madsen.

LMAO

I would have kept Toney over Skyy. Both worthless, BUT in the event that one actually did manage to do something productive, Toney could do it more spectacularly. But Im glad he's gone in its own right.

That's a good attitude.

If you told me we would win 5 Super Bowls+ after drafting Sky Moore I would have told you that's crazy....

I don’t get it. Why would you hate Skyy Moore?

Hate Veach for keeping him on the roster. Hate Reid for having him run routes.

What has Skyy Moore ever done? It’s not like he’s Toney making Chiefs diss tracks. By all accounts he’s been a great teammate at every step.

Just doesn’t seem right to make this guy a villain for being WR7 when he hasn’t been any sort of problem off the field.

I see Skyy getting 1 more year to figure it out. Not everyone starts out like Rice in year 1. Toney, although he had a couple of flashes that Chiefs fans will always be grateful for, was too much Joker and not enough Robin.

I couldn’t imagine what those ‘big’ plans might be either. But I guess Andy decided he had to go ahead with them, and we’re going to get to see them, whatever they are, because Skyy is going to be a Chief in 2024.

Thanks Nostradamus.

I have never seen a WR show what Skyy has or less in his first 3 years go on to even be useful.

Bad hands? Where are we getting THAT? He's had ONE drop in each of the past two seasons.

I mean, you can dislike the guy for whatever reason you deem fit, but that seems like an odd stance.

Skyy must have a secret hyphenated name we don’t know about

Skyy Chance-Moore

was that the perfectly thrown TD drop that would have beat the broncos that you are talking about? Because that was a big one

I'm sorry your cotton candy touched your funnel cake

The cotton candy touched the funnel cake. Throw it all in the trash

Ever look at Skyy's youtube channel he had for a bit and was absolutely going to throttle if he ever became a good player?

He's probably our cringiest player, man. I said it when he was coming out of the draft. He screamed "Patriot way douche." His origin story as a try hard without much talent getting overdrafted and turning into a try hard without much talent in the pros is quite fitting.

I was one of his fans when we drafted him, too, because I placed a ton of trust in Veach and Reid. I listened to the people who talked about his ability to get open in college and his short area quickness and I said, "Neat. We could use a consistent player like him. He'll be a chain mover for sure. I like it." But at this point? Man, even his special teams play is unremarkable, and I can't necessarily say he'd clearly be better on teams than Remigio, Ross, or Washington. They all do the exact same thing, except Remigio has a more charming backstory, Ross actually does impressive physical things from time to time, and Washington has speed.

Oh well. Maybe Andy can craft together dozens of different Corndog-type plays where Skyy is wide the **** open and it's a simple light toss from Mahomes. He can do that just fine, at least. Who knows... you get enough of those, and the guy might have 1000 yards!

I told DJLN that I was prepared to be disappointed when he makes the roster.

It’s a good thing I prepared because I’m disappointed.

Devils advocate hype train:

He was only a WR for 2 years of his life before getting drafted. Those 2 years were for a small school with small coaching.

He went into one of the toughest systems for WRs to pick up at the NFL level. Couple that with his only 2 years in a small school and it’s probably reasonable to expect him to be a little behind in development.

This shows in his overall field awareness and the amount of time he doesn’t “play fast”. If they can get him to a point he’s not thinking so much (and after the fumbles, probably overthinking everything) maybe we see the kid develop into the player some of us thought he could be coming out (Welker and Edelman).

To the credit of those initial comparisons of “upside” to those 2 greats, here are those 2s stats and Moores over their first 2 seasons in the nfl:

Welker
29 catches, 434 yards. 0 touchdowns

Edelman
44 catches, 444 yards, 1 touchdown.

Skyy Moore
43 catches, 494 yards, 1 touchdown (not counting playoffs.)

If these coaches can turn Skyy into a player that allows us to let Hollywood walk after this season and would allow us to use draft resources at other need positions to further bolster the roster…that would be huge. It would give Veach flexibility to make a big move now or during next years draft when we have the extra pick for Sneed.

Of, as Veach says, take a BIG swing.

Just bought a Skyy Moore jersey
