Rice is down for an unknown amount of time. Hollywood is down for the season. JuJu is injury prone. Moore is terrible. Meek and Watson... exist. Chiefs have $4.9m available in cap room.
Looking at available FA WR has me wondering about two names.
Hunter Renfrow - 28 tears old & Pro-Bowler with a 1K season
Michael Thomas - 31 years old & highly decorated. He has had a string of injuries over the past 3 years but prior to that he was a god tier receiver.

Short of trading away talent/picks... I don't see another way to shore up the WR room.
Or do we roll with Skyy Moore taking a good chunk of Rice's snaps and bank on JuJu not getting injured? [Reply]
Kareem was just on the street and look how good he looked today? Michael Thomas, coming back from Injury after missing a year and a half, played ten games and got 448 yards last season. In a team who were terrible. He's likely to be as healthy now as he's been for four years. And there's no doubt this guy is a master route runner with great hands. [Reply]
The more I think about this the more I want Thomas to get signed. It will take him a bit to get up to speed but we are early enough in the season where he would be caught up, at the latest, by the time we head into the playoffs. [Reply]
