They need to have him running actual routes. Use him like Baltimore uses Zay Flowers. Even early in his first season they used him as an actual WR better than we do. The way we develop WRs is terrible tbh. Including with Rice. These young WRs are far more capable than Reid and Nagy think. Rice is more than capable of being an intermediate threat but even this season he barely had over 5 yards per target which was I believe last again among WRs with similar targets.

Reid needs to trust players more. Other rookie WRs run full route trees but we have to wait till year 2 to hopefully see that from our WR. It's ridiculous. Worthy can do more than gadget plays and deep routes where we might target him once a game but mostly we're going to use him as a decoy.

I'm almost 100% sure we're getting Johnson or Slayton at this point. I hope Reid just gives them the whole playbook and we can hit the ground running with them instead of doing the package shit where hopefully they can get the full playbook by playoff time. Cause I really don't want to see people talk about how hard the playbook is to learn for WRs.

That’s not exactly true- plenty of people preferred Pickens

Another reminder that the pick after this bum was Trey McBride. Imagine how different the Chiefs offense would be now.

All these injuries this week definitely do not help our trade market. Lot of good teams that might be desperate

He was gone already. Skyy was there 2 picks later and most considered him best WR pick at that moment.

I think we traded down when we could have taken Pickens If I recall correctly?
