I'm not against the pick. Im happy we drafted WR. He's going to be a good player (better than Hardman). I didnt like trading up 4 spots to do it. As Ive indicated before the draft I don't value 40 times. I value guys that use their speed to adjust to the ball and defenses in which the gauntlet drill seems to do a good job of judging...as it did wirh Puka Nacua. One reason I wanted Keon Coleman this year.

With that said, this is a prototypical Andy Reid WR and he will be in a good offense for his skillset. Despite his speed Worthy can struggle as an X WR.

Please no Nagy gadget shit or this pick is way worse.

Who did you want instead?

And that’s part of what makes this trade pretty shocking. I would have thought Buffalo had the Chiefs on a trading blackball for the next 20 years.

I doubt he has the true speed Tyreek hill had.

If you compare high school 100 m times you’ll see.

However it is likely he has much more flexibility than Tyreek due to less muscle mass

That's just not his game though. But he doesn't have the dropsies or any shit like that.

We don't throw much to covered guys in the Andy Reid offense. Thats more Cincinnati stuff. He is a good fit for our offense.

Could you imagine the Bill's faithful if a 65 yard TD from Mahomes to Worthy was the winning TD over Buffalo in the playoffs?

It’s one thing if we jumped ahead of Buffalo. Not much they can do about that.

But trading a pick to us without completely ripping us off?

I can’t imagine being a Bills fan right now.

I agree with keysor. Worthy seems to have a lot of flexibility and bend in his hips. Something mecole doesn’t have.

One interesting thing might be that both Andy and Veach mentioned kickoffs. They're clearly thinking about the new kickoff rules and trying to think ahead to put a guy back there who can take advantage of them because they're expecting way more returns.

He was SO sure the NFL would prove him right and Mitchell would come off the board after the "underwear Olympics" as he calls them :-)
