Great #2 receivers go for 1,000 yards and 8 scores. He ain't gonna be that either.
But he can be a very good 3rd option, IMO.
800ish seems like a viable long-term target mark for him.
Again, it's a tools thing. They're just not standout. He's going to do as much as the system allows him to do and once he leaves KC, he's going to fade away in a couple years.
But if he can become a solid 3rd receving option here for 3-4 years before that happens, you just shrug, forget about the opportunity cost and move along. At that point it's just a pretty average 2nd round pick rather than any sort of bust.
So...fine. That works.
