Nobody in the league would take your practice squad guys over our 7th guy. That's pathetic. Hell I would say that most would take Ross over your 3rd and 4th receiver as well.
The Chiefs have a bunch of #3 and #4 WR's. None of them are reliable, #1 or#2 WR's. They're gambling on guys like Justyn Ross and Toney, both of whom make the Broncos' WR's look like Cal Ripken Jr.
The Broncos aren't hoping that their practice squad WR's develop into superstars. They're there to fill-in in a pinch. [Reply]

You DO realize you can't use those WRs in a game, right? They won't exactly be available "in a pinch" when you need them unless they're on the roster. [Reply]

Yeah if they’re not activated 90 minutes before the game starts, you’re screwed. It’s still useful to have three or four high floor guys you can call up three times each (if you’re in Denver’s situation). [Reply]

The Chiefs don't have a true number one right now. I'll give you that. But to call them all 3's and 4's is a stretch They are mostly 2's and 3's. But they all have as much or more potential than any of the scrubs and brokedicks in your roster. Wait until the end of the season. I bet that every one of our top 3 receivers ends up with better numbers than your top 3 receivers. Our top receiver, let's say that it's Skyy Moore, will have more yards than your top guy, let's say that's Judge Judy. Our second best receiver, we'll say Toney, will have better stats than Sutton, and Rice will have more than Mims. I'll stop at 3 since your 4th is some Jag and all 4 of our remaining receivers will have more than him. We won't even start with Kelce over doeszilch or whatever your TE's name is. Of course it's really not a fair comparison when our guys our going to be receiving from the best QB in the league while your guys are going to be stuck in a 90's style running offense with a washed up Tater throwing to them.

Kelce is the Chiefs number 1 receiver. You guys do realize that right? So yes every true "WR" will fall into the role of 2nd 3rd 4th option. They have a bunch of guys that are fine as 2nd options. This isn't fantasy football. [Reply]

If we're actually being candid, you have no clue what to expect from several of KC's receivers. As a Bronco fan, you want to assume the worst, but KC is pretty high on the potential of this group. Hence, keeping 7 WRs for the first time. They even had to trade a guy who was killing it in preseason.
A few of them have #1 WR potential. To say that none of them are even #2 caliber is utterly laughable. Especially coming from the person who thought that Sutton/Jeudy/Patrick/Hamler was a top notch receiving corps. :-) [Reply]

It’ll work out fine because you have Andy Reid. He’ll put them in the right spots and scheme them open.

Sean Payton can do the same thing.
Except it’s one of rhe worst OLs in the league blocking for one of the worst quarterbacks in the league. Sean better scheme them open on the sidelines, cuz Tater still won’t throw to the center of the field. [Reply]
