I heard thoughts like this when people were pushing Ruggs over Justin Jefferson. |
Worthy and Legette, especially if they go in the 1st, are both guys who would fall in the Quentin Johnston bucket for me.
I was elated when the Chargers took that guy. "Good - burn draft capital on a dude who's not gonna get open, fight for the football or manage to catch it when it gets to him..." Those are both guys who I'd be fine taking if they slide to us, but I'm not gonna overdraft either because of FOMO. |

Ladd McConkey is Dane Brugler's WR 6 at 34 overall. Questionable fit for the Chiefs as we don't typically see these traditional slot guys, but he gets open and has some ability after the catch to make guys miss.
5' 11" 187 lbs. "A tough player to cover one-on-one, McConkey tempos his long speed to get on the toes of cornerbacks, then snaps the break point with his short-area quickness. Although his lack of length hurts his catch radius, he plays with competitive ball skills and doesn’t force the quarterback to be perfect with placement. Because of injuries, McConkey played in only nine games (one start) in 2023, but he made a noticeable impact when he was on the field." <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Typing in my notes from CB class and keep seeing this on my paper- struggled vs McConkey</p>— Daniel Jeremiah (@MoveTheSticks) <a href="https://twitter.com/MoveTheSticks/status/1760381603522687060?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">February 21, 2024</a></blockquote> <script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script> |

Overblown on Burton. We all make mistakes. But you have to look at the whole picture rather than what the SEC drama queens want to portray. On the Tennessee fan, what you don't see is her putting her phone in his face and taunting him as he was leaving the field. Ask yourself this, if she was completely innocent in her actions, why did she delete the video of her taunting him as he left the field on her social media account? Burton faced no discipline that I remember. He has stated publicly that he made a mistake. It's probably not good policy for a fan to storm the field and go up to any player on the losing team and taunt them as they leave the field. He's talk shit. So what. Not uncommon for football players. He just needs to learn to not turn his head in the direction of the player he is talking shit to. Talking shit to fans? Who cares. I've seen Chiefs players talk shit to many opposing fans. I'm doubtful that Burton makes it to the end of round 3 if he tests as he should. IMO he will be looked at as a traits over production kind of guy. Because of that, I can easily see him moving up the board into the middle to late 2nd in a similar manner the way Jonathan Mingo moved up last year with his traits over production. His deep speed is elite. His hands are big. Tracks the ball just as well as any WR this year. 56% contested catch rate. 0 drops. He checks a lot of the boxes that we will be missing in the room next year. |

Yeah, I agree the character concerns seem like an exaggerated non-issue. But hey, if they make him slip to a range where KC can add him at a nice value, I’m cool with them. |

I'm alot higher on Pearsall as a similar type though, I just think there is more speed and better size there. |
