Even the ones with some success pretty much stayed who they were from rookie to departure. https://t.co/mQxV6AIjcG

But...none went elsewhere and improved in ther "2nd chances" either. I think it demonstrates the elite physical traits necessary to be a productive WR rather than shortcoming of the staff. Of the above, Hardman of course was a bit disappointing as a 2nd rnder, but is jut too slight. Chris Conley was the one that had the size and expectations (3rd rnd) to have improved to a solid 3.

I think it points to the chiefs needing to get way way way better at finding WRs in the draft. We just haven’t been very good at it outside of hill. Let’s hope so. We were also really bad at finding OL and then we got red hot finding trey and creed in the same draft. Same with LB. But it starts first with shooting for an actual WR1 instead of arguably focusing recently on guys who fit a role
