Yeah. Mahomes made undrafted players like Albert Wilson and Charcandrick West look good

Wilson is legit good. It doesn't make sense to me either.

Better him than Robinson. Robinson is, so far, one of those guys where it's his year every year, except it never actually is. Give me a new alternative. Same for Deiter. I know, I know. These guys always seem like they're 'connecting' with Mahomes. News flash: Mahomes is really ****ing good. He'd make a traffic cone look awesome.

lol this is going to be Robinson's third year and he had some of the biggest plays last year.
Get rid of Dieter, fine, but Robinson is legit. |

I feel like people had unrealistic expectations of Robinson. He made a lot of really good plays last year - considering he was generally the 3rd option behind Hill, then Watkins/Conley. And sometimes the 4th option behind all 3.

He seems to be the guy Pat ends up with a lot of instances whenever he's rolling out and looking to make a play as well. His strength may actually be how his improv skills correspond so well with Pat's.

If he's "legit" it should show this year, but what I've seen so far is a guy with natural gifts who has taken a very long time to start to get a handle on routes and reading defenses. Tyreek Hill, as an example, picked those aspects up very quickly in comparison, and that's the main reason he turned so quickly into one of the top receivers in the league, despite being drafted as a running back and (to this day, unfortunately) really only being recognized for his generational speed. Playing receiver at a high level involves a lot more than speed, height and even hands, and that's why, I think, Robinson hasn't seen the field more than he has to this point and why, when he has, it's generally been forced on the team because of injuries to players in front of him. Guys like him are valuable, I'm not saying he's not, but guys like him are also available all over the place.
But hey, maybe this year really will be the year he develops into something more. That would only be good for the team... Anyway, this thread is about Pringle, and I'm not sure I didn't see more potential from him before he got hurt last year than I'd seen from Robinson all along, but time will tell. Even if the guy does come from some b-school in Kansas. ![]() |

I mean if your two possible scenarios are the most talented wide receiver in the league and Gherig Dieter then I guess he's more Dieter but I think you're selling a guy incredibly short who was the #4/5/6 option and only played two years, one with Mahomes.
I'd MUCH rather have Robinson than Conley, for instance. This is a weird take. |

Right now across the league, there are approximately 128 WR bubble scrubs who are "pro bowlers" in waiting.
My God, the wealth of talent! ![]()

D-Rob caught both Mahomes’ No-Look pass and 50th TD pass with a memorable backwards trot.
He should be fitted for a Gold jacket, as far as I’m concerned.

Oh yeah because those were all about D-Robs skills. Mahomes would not be capable of doing that with any other WR.
