The interview is interesting. Kadarius shows a lot of intelligence with his answers to the football-related questions. And a great work ethic. Think Veach was onto something with this kid. [Reply]
Dude when he was juking on that punt return I thought he dislocated his knees three times. Dude's got like stork legs! Like they were bending backwards and sideways several times. [Reply]
He's a truly special, unique, gifted talent. Man, wish we could count on him to stay healthy. He'd do amazing things in this league, on this team, if he could. [Reply]

Hope he works with Patrick's trainer this offseason. [Reply]
I think working with the Chiefs medical team will really help him stay on the field. Dude is an exciting player. You have to feel great seeing he and Skyy come up big in the biggest game. [Reply]

Hell yeah, even my girlfriend noticed that block. She's like "Who's #88?".
God bless her. Girl's watched every Chiefs game with me over the last handful of years but she ain't gonna remember dudes from the bottom of the roster lol [Reply]

I was yelling at him to just take the 10 yards and quit juking.
LOLOLOLOLOL me
Kemp took out at least three would-be tacklers on that play. [Reply]
Chiefs GM Brett Veach said "I don’t know if there is a limit on [Kadarius Toney's] game because he has a vertical game."
“It’s a fair question to [ask]: ‘Has he ever played with a quarterback that likes to push the ball down the field?’ We have a lot of high hopes for him. He was a first-round pick for a reason. There’s a reason why we traded for him and we felt like he was first-round talent," Veach continued. The Chiefs added Rashee Rice in the draft but did not add the kind of high-target JuJu Smith-Schuster replacement that would keep Toney from blossoming in Kansas City's passing game. Toney will, yet again, be a WR3 pick with a lot of upside in 2023 drafts. [Reply]

A lot of people seemed surprised that the chiefs would see him as wr1. Other than durability he has all the traits. [Reply]

Well, tbh, durability is something that most true #1's possess. He has to prove that he can get through the majority of the season injury free to be able to grab that title, IMO. I'm looking forward to watching that happen in 2023-24. [Reply]

That's the only thing holding him back but it's a pretty BIG thing.
Right thats the big thing, but he has all the other traits to build a game plan around. The Chiefs obviously think they can overcome the soft tissue injuries or they probably dont trade for him. So its no surprise that they would view him as their number 1. If they didnt they would probably have been more aggresive in the draft to move up. [Reply]
