I feel like he had a hard as hell hand snag in traffic, and another good play with some YAC.
I'm not out on him at all just yet. I think he'll be a fine addition later this year and will probably make a big step next season.
I remember he had a youtube video talking about how crazy the level of detail is with Mahomes about hand placement mid route and through the catch process.
Its gotta be like going from a high school algebra 1 class to a calculous class at Harvard.

In his limited opportunities he's flashed the ability to snatch the ball with his hands, which is an excellent trait. And i do think he looks like a smooth athlete out there, and a natural hands catcher.
I think he will develop into a nice complimentary pass catcher. I think he has the ability to do so. I'd even say i'd expect him to.
But a nice, developmental, complimentary pass catcher is kind of a bitter pill to swallow when there was talent in the 2nd round that jumped off the page much more than Skyy did, and is currently showing early returns.
I think the crux of MY position regarding this debate boils down to: Don't piss in my cereal and tell me it's milk.
