ChiefsPlanet - View Single Post - RB has an argument for being our biggest team need

I know we won't be in range of a Jahmyr Gibbs level talent (aka Jamaal Charles), nor should that position be our first round selection, but you're right - an explosive running back would completely change this offense.

We seem to have solved our short-yardage issue from 2023, but we need someone with burst to turn a 2 yard run into a 7+ yard run. We don't have that.

We've been trying to manufacture some of this with Worthy, but the issue with him is that he goes down on first contact every time because he's 160 pounds.

I'd love to see Mahomes operate with a RB with elite burst.
