Chiefs Do we still need a slot WR? - Page 5

UChieffyBugger · 03-20-2018, 04:32 PM

Now Wilson has left I'm wondering who will play In the slot? I've heard some guys say "Conley can play there" but from what I understand the guy has not really played on the inside either for the Chiefs or In college? When Wilson didn't play last season the slot position looked quite poor tbh, So I'm thinking Veach will be looking to bring one In. There are some decent prospects In the draft like Keke Coutee, Daesean Hamilton and Anthony Miller to name a few.

Conley is kind of terrible at the kind of routes that slots run though. He seems way more straight-ahead speed kind of guy. The guy who mentioned Chesson might be on to something though.

I wouldn’t mind another receiver from the draft in the 4th, especially as Reid seems to pretty much sit rookie receivers in year 1, but we probably need to consider a tight end in the 4th too and still need a guard/center type lineman. I’m not sure how I feel about 3 offensive picks, unless it’s all 4th and later and even then I’m not sure.

Draft Braxton Berrios from Miami.

He'll be available in the later rounds and can contribute on special teams as well.

Reid seems to live him too. Makes me think his lack of production was more about opportunity. Alex never looked to him.

I live him too - very sweet man!

Yeah he reminds me of Amandola tbh. I've got my eye on him and Trey Quinn If they can't get Keke Coutee. Though no doubt Big Bill might hoover up these white slot guys before we can even blink

Well, he's not on the niceness level you are, but he's also no Belcher.

You would slide Watkins to the slot or Kelce with the possible signing of Watson

Me as well! They both bring something different however, and we may not need Robinson's deep balls with Watkins and Hill out there. A big, tall WR similar to Kelce would be another route to go.

When listing all of the needs across this defense, it becomes pretty clear that a slot receiver is the very last thing on Brett Veach' mind... be it Reek, Kelce, or Chesson, we have multiple options for that spot

Other than LG, this offense is as loaded as it can get for 2018... this draft will be defense, Defense, DEFENSE

RunKC · 03-21-2018, 06:39 PM

Hell just rotate Kelce, Hill and Watkins out of the slot on every down. It will be a goddamn struggle for any team to cover that.

Also we did sign Daniel Braverman to a futures contract. He’s a nice quick white dude like Julian Edelman.

Hog's Gone Fishin · 03-21-2018, 06:51 PM

What about this Deiter kid we have on the practice squad. I saw a clip where he could be our slot with great hands. He doesn't drop anything.

Lets just combine those two and call him Dieter Braverman

He could be an amazing slot receiver and had 18 freaking touchdowns at Memphis last year.

That talent AND under a rookie deal.

Yes.

Cut DAT on June 1 for his roster spot.

Why would you or anyone "think" that?

The guy probably starts the year on the PUP.
