His 3.97 short shuttle would've been No. 1 (all positions) at the Combine. His 6.72 three-cone would've been fourth-best. Looked great during position drills too.

Alot of that this year.

Makes guys like Thomas, Polk, McMillan, Burton and McCaffrey look a lot more appealing.

What would it take for the Chiefs to move up from 32 to 27 with the Texans to get Brian Thomas Jr.? Hopefully screwing the Bills again!

Thoughts?

I don't think he's making it out of the top 20 man, I just don't.

I don't think the Hollywood Brown signing will change any of the plans KC had. If there is a WR that Veach and Reid really like that is within trading distance or drops to 32, then Brown isn't stopping them from going after that guy. Brown is on a 1 year deal and typically first year WRs don't do a whole lot under Reid, so whoever the rookie may be would naturally slide into the 2nd WR spot and take over for Brown.

Does it change the type of WR you want KC to draft?

Went on a BTj binge today. Really think he’s the bust of the group. Tools are there but a lot missing. Generally looks awkward at times. Got owned by Alabama.

I’d put Mitchell and worthy above him in pecking order.By a good margin.

I've noticed PFF has him scored relatively average considering his accomplishments.

Rome Odunze “can’t get open” clearly anyone who talks about his contested catching has never watched him play look at the stats vs MHJ and Nabers

Rome Odunze had 27 contested target situations & caught 20.

Malik Nabers had 22 contested target situations & caught 10.

MHJ 30… pic.twitter.com/IldVamFP8a

Skyy Moore and MVS have 10” hands. How’d that work out?

I’ve said this before, maybe you saw. But people need to think about the fact he has QB1 and WR1 in any other draft on his team. A lot of his TDs came from Daniels great ball placement. He’s not the greatest YAC. He looks fluid, yes, but not shifty. And for his size he’s not that good at contested catches. At least from what I saw.

I don’t think he’d be a bust if he had Mahomes and the offense we have around him, because it’s similar to the level of relative eliteness he had at LSu. But all in all, Worthy and Mitchell could actually be safer picks, especially for year 1.

Like personally? No I want a fast guy. Brown being here for a WRs rookie season doesn't keep me from that.

If you mean it the Chiefs:
I don't think so, but **** what do I know?

How did it work out?. Back to back SB's sounds pretty good for them and us. Wouldn't you agree?

Ladd's small hands aren't about whataboutisms's though.

I'd move up for Thomas, or wait on the other four before spending #32 on Ladd.
