Also if Pickens and Skyy were graded similar… take the guy without the character red flags.

I'm not buying it. How could they have known no one else was going to pick Skyy? 3 of the 4 teams picked WR. They had to be ok with any of those WRs.

He also said that he’s better than Juju and MVS.

If he can get open as fast as Julian Edleman use to then I'm happy. Nobody could hang with that guy one on one. Same with Antonio Brown, perhaps Skyy's best comparison.

Might seee him pass the ball. Was an elite high school qb

Skyy Moore only had 5 dropped passes in 3 years.

Sick

This kid has the makings of a wideout that has over 100 catches in as soon as his second year. Mahomes is going to go to him constantly because he’s going to trust him.

Well, unless Darrian Kinnard kills it...We don't get him without the trade.
[Reply]

Yes, we need that pesky chainmover that constantly gets open for 6 yard when you needed 5...
[Reply]

....and doesn't run back 2 yards.

Didn't realize this before but Skyy may be the freakiest WR in this draft. He's 5'10" with 10.25" hands. For reference, they said Teylon Burks, who stands at 6'2", hands were so big that they had to custom order his gloves. Treylon Burks hands are 9 7/8".

Straight. Up. Freaky.
[Reply]

To be fair, he probably had quite a few more drops over those 3 years, but the ball just got stuck in those huge hands covered with sticky gloves

Oh yeah - it worked out great. I just don't buy they knew Skyy would still be there at 54, which means they had a few acceptable WRs at the same level - maybe Pickens, Skyy and Pierce.

If Skyy is your only guy you have to take him there.

I also wonder if that's why his family was freaking out so much. They knew the Chiefs were a potential landing spot. So they might have been hoping he'd go and 50, and then crushed when we traded back, and then resurrected when we finally picked him at 54.

They knew the call meant he was being drafted. But they didn't go nuts until they heard him say Chiefs. That was awesome.

That makes me so happy. Tyreek was so good at catching with his body for so long. But he seemed to slip last year, especially at catching the ball in traffic, and not do so well when he did try to catch it with his hands. Hand catchers seem to stay consistent for a lot longer.

Yes. Between our last Super Bowl appearance and last season, you could make a nasty little highlight film of how some of Tyeek's drops turned into disaster.

In the Super Bowl one bounced off his face. Two pick sixes went right off his hands. Then there was one where we were inside the ten and it went right off Tyreek's hands and into the awaiting arms of Kendall Fuller. Even in the Playoffs in OT Tyreek let that ball get into his face allowing the defender to get a hand in there. If he high points that ball, like he's suppose to, the defender does not have a chance. In the Super Bowl we thr WASP play happened because Tyreek trapped a ball on 2nd and 15 that got into his body.

So yes, I know exactly what you're saying and agree. Tyreek straight up got lazy in his technique and at times we paid for it dearly. That won't happen with Skyy but neither will all the crazy open field stuff we say Tyreek do. In all, I think we're coming out good here.

His family/friends went apeshit...like they just won the lottery. Being a WR...and getting drafted to play with Mahomes will make you a lot of money.

Every WR in this draft secretly wanted to be drafted by KC....
