I see his play style as more Dez Bryant than moss

So, if Rice plays well, gatekeepers can say, See, I told you he was good.

And if Rice plays poorly, the gatekeepers can just say I expected too much, a second round receiver was never going to contribute his rookie year.

It's a nice little catch-22 they set up to make sure they can't be wrong.

Yes, I like that comparison. :thumb:

I quite like the pick, perfectly happy with it, and I'm not sure I'd use the term "gatekeepers" as people can say what they think here, they might just get hammered if people disagree.

But I think there's a germ of truth to the point that there's no real recognition of those calling bad picks getting it right. Some of it's fair enough i.e. they might need more time. But some of it is just pretending people are making claims they're not i.e. they are expert evaluators. We can always argue the toss about what "value" a player has or what "impact" should be expected from a R1, R2 pick etc, but sometimes a guy is a bum and a reach and people called it and got it right, even if they called it for the wrong reasons/analysis.

None of this imo relates to Rice, to be clear!

Bacon comes in rasheers, KC has a new love Chefs

You're so FOS. Jesus man, are you taking up the mantle for Chiefy?

I think Rashee Rice is going to be great. The REAL question for me is whether or not this draft pick has to do with Skyy Moore.

Yeah it's an odd time in Chiefs history to become hypercritical of the GM's draft picks. Maybe he's John Dorsey's CP burner account.

I was thinking Moore would take a lot of the JJSS snaps, but Rice now looks a more obvious fit. How are you thinking it shakes out?

He’s wearing number 4.

Kind of a badass WR number.

Lol no. Rice is your x. Moore is your y.

He’s our lone rookie chosen for the rookie photoshoots

that is the problem . ANY criticism of a pick is "hypercritical" for the Brett Veach Ball Washing Association. five drafts, five free agencies, five trade deadlines and he still hasn't brought in a topflight offensive skill position player. but he did inherit 3 0r 4.

This is the kind of stupidity that we have to deal with in the golden age of Chiefs football.

I swear some of you are the most whiny impatient miserable ****s.
