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.

He can't contribute though. No matter how many times you repeat the false narrative it isn't going to make it true. He's not an NFL caliber returner.

[RunKC]

Yeah Km with Sassy here. Remigio and Ross aren’t good. They need to go make a trade to replace Skyy, not bring anybody up

This is totally ridiculous. Where does this come from? He has done nothing to show that he is incapable except for not having actual game reps, which he had plenty of in college. And he did plenty well in limited PR reps including almost running one for a td in the preseason.

I love Andy Reid but we know from time to time he makes the decisions based on emotion. There is zero logic whatsoever to skyy being rostered in week 5 let alone this season at all.

Maybe the cost of replacing your 5th or 6th wide receiver wasn't worth it for a minor upgrade. I don't know but maybe the team just decided to allocate those resources elsewhere instead of cutting skyy, eating the dead money, then paying his replacement on top of that when there weren't good options for the cost, all to improve the absolute basement of the wide receiver room.

Skyy is lousy yes, but to act that andy and veach are morons for keeping the guy that already had salary cap space sunk into him, knows the playbook, and is maybe a good teammate....is some pretty low faith in those two.

They already ate toney's cap but he was also making stupid videos bashing the team and actually turning the ball over to cost us games. Sometimes you just can't fix everything in one off-season.

Yes that is what they need to do. Nobody is on the trade bandwagon more than me. But there is zero rationale for having skyy out there against Nola especially put in a role where he may be asked to return punts despite being a complete liability . This isn’t about remigio being a long term answer. As long as skyy is on the roster it makes zero sense for him to be on above remigio.

I am good with that but if they aren't going to do that then I would rather see one of the other guys honestly.

I don’t think it’s low faith that guys who are spectacular at their jobs have some minor faults. They’ve done a brilliant job with this roster. Think most of us would agree that they are way too emotionally invested in skyy. I get not paying for a replacement. We brought in Hollywood and worthy and that might have finally been enough to squeeze skyu out of brown stays healthy.

But now this is no longer a financial decision. We have the in house option to use somebody in his place. Someone who also knows the playbook, doesn’t cost anything and was liked enough to stick around for 2 years. So at this point the decision seems way more emotional than it does logical

Nobody thinks they're morons - they just think they're wrong.

And ultimately, this idea that you don't want to upgrade your 6th WR slot because it takes effort just runs contrary to everything we've seen from Veach. He's always looking to refresh/replace the bottom of the roster.

And ultimately we just learned that your 5th WR can become your WR3 as quick as a hiccup.

So I hope (and expect) that Veach learned from this. Next year, we won't see any more of these damn charity case roster spots. If you have a guy you don't think you can trust if he moves 2 spots up the depth chart, you shouldn't have him on the roster. The end.

The problem isn't that Moore can't step in and play WR1 if we need him to - nobody expects that. The problem is that we can't trust him to play WR3 now that we've had a couple of injuries. He simply cannot play the position and the team clearly has no interest in asking him to.

That means he never should've been on this roster to begin with. It should've been someone like Noah Brown -- a guy who CAN actually contribute if/when called upon.

Moore clearly ain't that guy.

Yep yep. It was pretty telling that when Hollywood got hurt they went out and signed JuJu. They obviously didn't trust Skyy to move up the depth chart.

Then we hear that Veach was pissed when Skyy drops an easy 1st down pass last week and he hardly sees the field after that. I am not saying that Remigio or Ross are world beaters but I bet they could give us more than Skyy could.

I am all for doing what is necessary to upgrade our WR depth I would just love for someone to tell me why Skyy is still active at this point.

Same here. And while I don’t think remigio is anything special, I also would rather let him sink or swim on the field. He is the only WR on our roster who really hasn’t been given chances. When there is really no risk (the guy he’s replacing is to the point of being a liability) it just feels like there’s nothing to lose from trying.

And of course if we bring in outside help and I hope we do, then relegate him again.

You know it was a good game last night when this is the topic dominating the coversation today

I am wondering now if it is because of the practice squad call up rules. Since it is so early in the season with an early bye week, they didn't want to waste one. Both Ross and Remigio were getting first team reps this week in practice, so I almost bet that was it.

Teams can use a "standard elevation" to make as many as two practice squad players available to play in a regular season game without moving them to the active roster. However, the elevation can only be used a maximum of three times on a single player. To make a player available for a fourth regular season game, he would need to be moved to the active roster.

Skyy's errors must be the devil they know they can withstand. Not a lot of room for errors
