I am uneducated about McMillan. Did he miss time last year or did something else cause his drop in production from '22?

Yea, he battled injuries (or just one) this year.

I wouldn't be shocked to see McConkey in rd 2 tbh. He is a very good route runner with size. He's down the list for me though.

It would also be naive to ignore Corley as a realistic option if he runs well this week. Andy is predicated on YAC and that guy is ****ing good at YAC.

I think we should be looking for someone who represented what they thought they were getting in Skyy.

Sprained knee. Looked worse than it ended up being at the time but still cost him something like 6 weeks and then a little longer to get back up to full speed.

He's a Sophomore tape guy. He flashed when at full gallop this year but the soph tape really should tell you a lot.

I really think a healthy season puts him in 1st round consideration and I'd be elated to get him at 64.

Roman Wilson is in that boat of developed, sure-handed route runners, along with McConkey.

I think if Pat wants his next guy that can run WASP, this is his guy haha. I'm having a hard time jumping on the bandwagon after my epic fail with Hyatt last year but I can say I would like it alot if he were the pick.

I think saying Hyatt was an epic fail is unfair.

When I, and I assume you and most people, say we like this player or that player, we are saying so with the idea that our assessment depends on that player being drafted by the Chiefs, and coached by Reid and his staff.

When players we like get drafted to teams that have no idea how TF to coach or run an organization, that player's poor performance may be all about the team. If it's an offensive skill position player, and they end up playing with say, a Danny Dimes, or a rookie QB, etc. how can we expect the results to be anything but disappointing?

Worthy is going to get a good long look by the Chiefs, he looks like someone they'd be really in on, so if we pass it's for reason.

But is he an Alpha?


No, he is not.

I think I like Mitchell more than Franklin. Staylor will hate me.

Not at all. The consensus on these guys is that they're all really close. It's just a matter of preference.

Franklin is a better fit for the Chiefs, I don't think they've had a receiving with Mitchells skillset in Reid's entire tenure here.

O.city 02-27-2024 12:10 PM

Based on their history....I think worthy and Franklin fit more.

I agree. For Nagy's offense Franklin is a better fit.



He can run fast down the field as a decoy so we can throw 8 more sideways passes.

Idk about using a high asset on a field stretcher though. The air yards went way down in 2021 after the league used Fangio's cover 2 shell on us.

Defenses are adamant that they absolutely will not give up the deep ball to us under any circumstances. They want Patrick having 8-12 play drives malign him impatient with the opportunity of someone else like a WR or OL making a mistake. That's the only way they've stalled him in his career. That's certainly not changing.

That's why I think a lower cost guy like Mooney with Hardman as the depth option makes sense.

Feels like they want to get back to destroying teams in the intermediate level of the field again like they did in 2022 when they had around 4.5 air yards avg per completion.
