Where is this narrative that Mecole can’t stay healthy coming from? He never missed a game in his first 3 seasons. Sure he missed half of this season but he also put off surgery until after the season in an attempt to come back this season. Anyone that didn’t notice that the jet sweep / fake sweeps weren’t as effective when he was out wasn’t paying attention. The thing he does so well is stretch the field horizontally which can be just as important as stretching it vertically. [Reply]

Bwahahahahaha. So getting suspended off his college team, twice, for over a years was just him being an immature goofbal? Ozzie Newsome asked him "son, why are you such an asshole" for no reason? Reid allegedly asked him this on draft night :“Listen, are you going to f*** this up?” Reid asked, according to The Athletic. “Are you going to screw up this opportunity if I take you?”, and still wanted his brother to vouch for him.
Yeah, no. It's an incredibly valid comparison since Kelce was an asshole at times his first few seasons here. And grew out of it to become a HOF talent. There's no reason Pickens couldn't have done the same here. [Reply]
Obviously Mahomes can get it done with a bunch of potatoes for a WR group, but I sure would like to see them find another badass who can take over a game. [Reply]

I do really hope that we trade for Hopkins! He's a star in his prime that will continue to be productive over the next couple years of his contract. Get it done Veach!
OBJ is out of his mind if he thinks he's getting $20m, pass.
I'd happily target Hyatt in the draft, but currently I think we need anther vet.
How about a trade for C Sutton? ...he's got size and speed, Donks are looking to unload him but apparently have a high asking price.
Really? Not me. I'm on record somewhere saying I'd do 3/$24MM, but not much more than that. I like JuJu for what he is, and I'm glad we had him this past season. I just think we're fine moving on without him. [Reply]

I don't like you implying that Russell Wilson is gonna play WR for us. [Reply]

Kelce was immature.
Pickens has a legit temper problem.
Huge difference. You can outgrow one of those things. [Reply]

I've been pretty outspoken about trading for Hopkins or signing OBJ. I've said repeatedly that this WR class isn't great. My ideal situation is a trade/sign of either of those guys for this season as this class isn't a great one.
Now answer my question: Do you think Mahomes and Reid are incapable of doing what Dennis Allen and (checks notes) Andy Dalton did in getting Olave to produce? Because that's the argument you're making.
It sounds stupid as fuck when you say it, doesn't it? [Reply]
Entirely replaceable imo and I wouldn't want to offer 3 years with that knee. Had a great SB so I've massive appreciation, glad he got paid somewhat, but not at all concerned he's gone. [Reply]
