Which reminds me. Anyone want to see Andy call more slants? you want to guess who the best slant WR is in the NFL? The best at beating press? Clue: his name starts with a 'D.'
But here's the problems with both OBJ and Deandre. OBJ is a singular loud personality that demands a lot of targets, and that will be a big reason for him to come to KC. He's going to want as many targets as he can get, because he needs to reset his market value in the one or two seasons he's with KC. And when he doesn't get those targets, he's going to make noise about it. or his dad will, or whoever. And he's pretty much always been a boundary WR. So not exactly the guy we need to replace JuJu. I think it wouldn't be that hard for him to figure it out, but it's not his wheelhouse.
Then we have Dhop's lack of interest in practice. Now maybe that would change in KC, but he does have that history, at least in ARI. But that could be related to his QB/HC situation, I don't know. But it's there. And our draft picks just aren't that enticing. Even if ARI says we'll take a 5th and a 6th, would they take ours? More likely we'd have to bump those to a 4th and a 5th, maybe even a 3rd and a 4th, because those picks are dead last in each round. Not sure Veach will go that far, but whatever.
So both would come with certain issues. Which are probably the biggest reasons I personally don't see either coming to KC, not the money.

You're literally figuring on the same path I am. So arguing about the why's and hypothetical stuff is pointless.
We both figure they'll sign a guy/trade for a guy on the cheap, bring back JWat, and draft a guy early-ish.
The only difference is, I thought that from the beginning. I just thought Hardman would do his one year deal here, because it made the most sense. I guess I didn't count on how much of a dumb-ass he really is.
