- Early career production - Dynamic threat downfield & after the catch - Elite speed & start-stop ability - Fluid mover w/ good route running chops - Ball tracking is A+
Not entirely sure why the vibe isn't higher when talking about him in the WR class. pic.twitter.com/dv3JjdyZgh
I'll write something fresh about Worthy tomorrow morning now that he's a Chief to lay out how he's more than speed, but for now here's an excerpt from article linked in the below tweet... https://t.co/EcW7QtUrFFpic.twitter.com/811ahCEfMS

Coleman can't separate at all on the outside, that video has a bunch of clips of him getting handled in press and man coverage running a bunch of backyard football routes. They tell an anecdote from an AFC defensive coach that said before Buffalo traded for Cooper they had nothing worth respecting on the outside.
I dunno why Buffalo drafted him so high, he's a project that has very little of the fundamentals you need to actually be a good contested catch guy in the NFL. He'd be fine as a third round pick, but trading down from the first to take him at the top of the 2nd? No way. [Reply]

Mahomes doesn't see him half the time or doesn't have the protection to wait. Those easy screens and inside out pivots are the easiest way to get some yards or much more. It also makes the coverage move up or it's death by a thousand cuts and lots of time coming off the clock. [Reply]

Xavier is really good at creating quick separation against man, and moving him around and in the backfield creates mismatches. Andy got him man to man against a Pitt linebacker on one of Worthy's big plays. [Reply]

Sure, if you take my dynasty draft pick of BTJ out of the equation!!! But why would you do that when you know how important it is??? [Reply]

MahomesMagic thinks these are gadget plays?
He wants video game football. It doesn't count if the ball doesn't have 20 yards in the air, at least. [Reply]

In another thread I outlined the best path for the offense was to force the other team into 2 high safeties and to throw the ball to Kelce and D Hop in the 8-12 yard range.
AKA, 2022 Kansas City Chiefs offense. That's not based on video games you mongoloid. [Reply]
