Xavier Worthy - WR, UT

- Early career production
- Dynamic threat downfield & after the catch
- Elite speed & start-stop ability
- Fluid mover w/ good route running chops
- Ball tracking is A+

Not entirely sure why the vibe isn't higher when talking about him in the WR class. pic.twitter.com/dv3JjdyZgh

I'll write something fresh about Worthy tomorrow morning now that he's a Chief to lay out how he's more than speed, but for now here's an excerpt from article linked in the below tweet... https://t.co/EcW7QtUrFF pic.twitter.com/811ahCEfMS

Typically when you're 'naturally adding muscle/weight' it's coming as your body starts to fill out and often at the expense of speed.

Which gets back to my previous point - I honestly think that's more who he is. I think he's going to be a little heavier and a little slower than his combine performance.

Which has him measuring/timing out very similarly to Flowers. Or maybe Jaylen Waddle. More in the low to mid 4.3 range at more like 170 lbs.

The Eisen interview sold me.
Besides fast, quick and tough, he knows what every offensive player is doing on a play. I think being cerebral and having a great memory sold the Chiefs on him. Like Rice, he may be a quick study to get on the field.

the fact that we added so much offense while only losing Sneed and Gay on defense is masterful. pretty confident that veach will find a good CB today so I’m sort of blindly hoping losing sneed wont be that big of a blow. and losing gay isnt really a big deal when honestly tranquill/chenal were arguably better than him by the playoffs

So why are you crying then? You begged and begged for Veach to fix WR and he did with Hollywood and Wirthy...and you still cried about it

So....if Hill, Chase and Jefferson got shut down by a physical corner, then by your logic, they aren't true #1's.

And if THOSE guys aren't true 1's, then what you're asking for doesn't exist.

Your argument makes no damn sense.

I understand the want for a big bodied WR that can go up and win a contested ball, but again, the Chiefs already drafted that guy. Rashe Rice. He's already on the roster.

That's a pretty good point.

If the 3 best dudes in the NFL (almost without argument) can get shut down by a physical CB like Sneed, then anybody can.

And what it also says is that you can count the number of corners out there that can simply body a WR out of a game on 1 hand. You might be able to do it on 1 finger.

And now you see why we didn't spend a 1st on a CB.

We don't need to.

We have a top 5 defense and might just have our top 5 offense back...

TWO of them.

And while those guys are occupied Rice and El Travador will tear up your safeties and LB's. Worthy doesn't have to be a WR 1 - he just needs to be Hardman with good hands who can track the football deep...

Not to mention Pop. Oh. and Mahomes can always scramble too. If we can add a scat back with sub 4.4 speed we'll be cooking with gas then boys.

GOOD LUCK

I’m not. Veach improved the WR room and the offense.

I also didn’t “cry” when we took Mecole over DK, Mclaurin, and Diontae Johnson. Was more annoyed .

Eventually we need to draft a number 1 WR. I just preferred doing it while Kelce still playing and not waiting till he retires.

[Jerm]

I cannot believe the NFL let Andy Reid and Patrick Mahomes get Xavier Worthy....LOL unbelievable.

They don't know how bad they just ****ed up.

Defensive coordinators will be pissing themselves on a weekly basis.

Good luck.

[bigjosh]

Im not typically the type to be a dick and bring up past posts because mine are pretty self incriminating, but did any of this happen? Lol.

Also, has your opinion changed at all now that its actually happened?

[Monticore]

He might be facing other teams number 3 CB or safeties if we can get him out there with rice/brown/Kelce , good luck

[CupidStunt]

He's gonna play at 175, and if he can avoid hits the way Devonta Smith does, and be about 80% as reliable with his hands, throw his speed on top of that, we're hitting the jackpot.

Veach has proven, conclusively, that we do not need to.

We don't need a pro bowl WR or HB. We don't even need impressive starters.

We have a top 5 defense and the greatest QB to ever play. That recipe wins SB's pretty reliably...

C’mon man, how’s that working out for both sides? We didn’t need Reek. Reek needed us. Now he gets to vacation early every offseason, and watch his former team play in AFCCG & SBs.
