Patrick Mahomes is going to have a lot of fun throwing to Skyy Moore. Wins right off the line with great hands. Lots of smiles in Kansas City.

Typical draft guru echo chamber, IMO.

There was just so little available film on him (and so many WR prospects that year) that you’ll never convince me that these people actually saw that on tape.

Someone else said it, this guy repeated it.

Curious if he is practice squad eligible and if KC stuffs him there as an emergency WR.

I believe the rules still allow for players with more than 2 years experience to be on the PS.

It was a change they made during COVID and I think they kept it, though I don't specifically recall.

Honestly, I don't think they'll re-sign him to the PS. When they cut bait on Speaks, they never had any inclination to put him on the PS. When they have a guy that they've seen enough of, they're not typically going to just stash them on the PS because they've been in the system.

If they think so poorly of Moore that they cut him, I don't think they'll consider him for the PS.

Last year Mike Pennell was signed to the practice squad during the season before he got elevated to the 53 later on.

Some kid will be a 3 star prospect then Texas and Alabama will offer him and Rivals, sight unseen, will give him a 4th star because "Hey, if UT and Bama want him, he's obviously at least a 4-star..."

The Chiefs, even before the B2B, were among the most respected organizations in football. Reid was certainly viewed as at worst the 2nd best offensive coach in the game (McVay was getting pumped off a lot at the time).

So we drafted him and the draft folks gave him a 4th star. Had the Cardinals taken him, I don't think you see that kind of hype fly up around him.

Ohhh I thought he was projected as 2nd round talent going into the draft.

Nikko Remigio might be what we thought Skyy Moore was going to be

Was kinda looking that way even last year before he was injured.

If you see him getting a lot of special teams run and/or Toney getting more run with the RBs, that may be a sign that they are going to try to keep him rather than stash him on the PS.

Remigio they'll definitely put on the PS if they decide to cut him and can sneak him through. They clearly think highly of him. And if he's out there getting the job done as a stark contrast to Moore, that is only going to help him because those two are very very similar players.

Having a clear point of comparison that you're outperforming is going to help a lot.

[DJ's left nut]

Hollywood
Rice
Worthy
Watson
Hardman
Toney

Sure seems to be a probable starting 6 at this point. Maybe Hardman ends up getting run down or Toney gets hurt or shits the bed. But at most I see two available openings and if Moore is truly running behind Remigio at this point and maybe even Ross...there just isn't a path for him to make the team. That's a guy that may not survive first cuts as a 'favor' to him.

Dude doesn’t seem to have the mental acuity to play in a Reid scheme and runs like molasses.

I’m just gonna pretend we used a 2nd on him rather than Skyyyy.

First cuts isn't a thing anymore I'm pretty sure.

Part of running like molasses might actually be because of the mental aspect. I still don't think he has a goddamn clue what he's doing most of the time, and it shows.

I’ll buy that he plays slow because he’s not confident of his assigned route tree vis a vis the play and his role in it.

Don't get me wrong, he's not fast by a long shot, but running with hesitancy makes it far worse.
