Rashee Rice | WR | SMU

One of the best WR prospects at the catch point and winning leverage mid-route. He consistently sets up defenders to put them on his back, locates the ball, and attacks it at the highest point.

Rashee Rice was drafted with pick 55 of round 2 in the 2023 draft class. He scored a 9.53 #RAS out of a possible 10.00. This ranked 145 out of 3062 WR from 1987 to 2023. https://t.co/lwD9tvVPvv pic.twitter.com/YjucxErSE1

He had some really nice plays. Loved the back shoulder catch and tap.. that was an underrated play. Chiefs ended up punting but without that play they likely punt from the end zone. Keep it coming. 1 weapon is starting to develop.

Rice,, McDuffie and Pechecko are blooming stars for this Franchise.

Mahomes starts throwing those to the kid, and we're going to light people up.

Hell it’s something we haven’t had for years. These are the kind of x/y plays I was really hoping for this offseason. It opens so much of the playbook if rashee can consistently win on these plays and just as importantly make plays on the ball even if he’s not necessarily open. If he can do this consistently we will finally get some of that rhythm back

Totally agree with you and Chris Meck on the back shoulder pass. Very encouraging

[Mosbonian]

Let's hope that this is just the first of several games of growth for Rice....would love to see a few more TD's like that 39 yard one he had yesterday.

[Chris Meck]

I'm not saying that Rice is Chase, but just how many of those does Burrow throw whenever Chase is one on one outside, and the coverage is pretty good, and they just complete the damned thing anyway?

I mean, it's a TON.

We've never really had that as a piece of the repertoire here, but if we're going to have that on the table, we're going to start lighting people up.

His game speed appears to be faster than his combine testing scores, which is great! His 10-20 yd time was great at the combine, but 40 yd lagged a little compared to others. He seems to hit another gear with the ball in his hands.

[RunKC]

On his way to being the best Andy Reid rookie WR statistically.

DeSean Jackson- 62 Catches/912 Yds/2 TDs
Jeremy Maclin - 56 Catches/773 Yds/4 TDs
Tyreek Hill - 61 Catches/593 Yds/6 TDs
Reggie Brown - 43 Catches/571 Yds/4 TDs
Mecole Hardman - 26 Catches/538 Yds/6 TDs

Rashee Rice - 44 Catches/527 Yds/5 TDs

[O.city]

I think he could get to 1k yards if all breaks his way coming down the stretch. Probably needs another 100 yard game though.

With how the other wide receiver’s are playing it’s essential

Charvarius Ward concurs.

[Sure-Oz]

He looks at worst that he could be a #2 if he keeps improving

He'll need to step it up a decent chunk to surpass Jackson's yardage total, but he seems likely to me to get at least 2 TDs and become the most productive from that measure.

[ChiTown]

Rice is a stud. He just needs to tighten up that focus catching the ball. Otherwise, he's been a dandy pick at #55, IMO.

A week ago you're in here shitting on him as not being capable of doing what JuJu could do and just banging on the table about it.

One game later you think he's suddenly figured it all out? Or maybe you just don't know your ass from a hole in the ground?

Stick to the gifs because your 'insight' is worth precisely dick.
