Rashee Rice | WR | SMU

One of the best WR prospects at the catch point and winning leverage mid-route. He consistently sets up defenders to put them on his back, locates the ball, and attacks it at the highest point.

Rashee Rice was drafted with pick 55 of round 2 in the 2023 draft class. He scored a 9.53 #RAS out of a possible 10.00. This ranked 145 out of 3062 WR from 1987 to 2023. https://t.co/lwD9tvVPvv pic.twitter.com/YjucxErSE1

I'd honestly probably take one a year at some point in the draft. The value of hitting is just too great to ignore. WR, DE and CB over and over again until you're getting them, and then going again to restock

I'd take one in the first 3 rounds bascially every year.

We're taking the 2024 version of Hyatt in the draft next season and probably in the 2nd round.

And I wouldn't be surprised to see us double up on the position as we have on the DL and Secondary at some point in the next year or two as well.

DJ's left nut · 05-03-2023, 11:17 AM

So I'm gonna call a shot here - Jalen McMillan out of Washington as a guy we trade up in the 2nd for. I think he'll eventually work his way into a lot of top 50 prospects lists.

Checks a lot of boxes. He's tall and has elite deep speed. He's been productive but he's the #2 WR on his team (Romeo Odunze is the #1) so he'll stay a little under the radar and it will keep him out of the 1st.

Imma say that he's our guy if he has the kind of platform season I expect him to have. The only thing that makes me question it is location - we really gonna take a WR from the Northwest? Then again, More was out of Western Michigan so their Southern Bias may not extend to WRs...

He was mad because we traded up and lost picks and he’s all about accumulating picks so his thoughts are the picks are not worth it due to the trading of picks. He’s just doing his usual stick of getting on something and hammering it over and over:

Yep said the same elsewhere, gonna be elite speed next year

Where Rice can potentially close that gap up, though, is through physicality. There are plays Rice goes up and contorts to get a ball that, frankly, I'd just as soon see Toney not attempt. He just isn't built in a way that allows him to take those kinds of hits.

I think Toney's best use of that skill is on the sideline where he can use the boundary to protect himself. Whereas Rice's best use will be in between the hashes where he can use the open field to create room to work and throwing lanes then use his body/strength to get the ball.

But you make a good comparison in that it just demonstrates another area where this WR group is becoming EXTREMELY complementary. So many traits that dovetail nicely together.

When the price for elite WR went up I could see teams going with the WRBC approach we just happen to have a Coach and QB that can make it work.

Trade the entire draft for #1 pick and draft Marvin Harrison jr next yr.

I don't necessarily disagree, in that picks are insanely valuable. However, they're only valuable if you have good people making the picks/decisions. In our case, we have one of the best, which leads me to also trust him in trading those valuable assets.

The Chiefs are listing Rashee Rice at 6'2" when he is only 6'.5" tall. Like, why?

They’re using metric inches.

To give you some more to bitch about.

I wasn't bitching, but everyone knows how tall he is from the combine. It just seems silly to not be honest about it on their official roster page.

Also, AGAIN, I LIKE RICE AS A PLAYER, but moving up made no sense.

And Seth Keysor also said on the radio that he also didn't like or understand the move up, because he thought we could have gotten Rice if we stayed put.

Seth Keysor is no draft analyst - he admittedly hadn't watched even a second of tape on FAU before the Chiefs drafted him. His opinion of who would or would not be available is as valuable as yours (which is to say: not very valuable).
