He loved Skyy Moore. He's what talked me into it. I'm not listening to Smith anymore.

Damn, maybe we're a little bullish on some of our WRs.

NFL.com's latest 3-round mock has Franklin going #62 and Legette #80.

They have us trading up for Coleman ahead of the Bills, love that part lol.

I think there's a chance Franklin is not quite as strong against press and he can be bullied a little. He also, I believe, doesn't have a great catch rate maybe?

But honestly, if he slips to us at 32 I'd run it in. He's quick, has great releases, great length, and I could absolutely see that frame putting on another 5-10lbs without losing much. To get that upside end of the 1st would be incredible I think.

As Chiefs fans it might be our duty to flood the internet and radio airways with negative comments about Franklin's drop rate so he falls to us at #32.

Coleman is already a YES for me.

Big, strong dude who can be a #1 WR in the NFL.

No interest in spending a 1st round pick on a vertical weapon or a tiny little player that can't be fed or focal.

Reuter's attempt here seems so far off of consensus that it's bordering on wtf status for me. I'm totally for cutting against the grain a bit, I do the same. But having guys like McKinstry and Franklin in the late 2nd and Suamataia and Nubin in the 3rd screams a bit too loudly at me.

Here's a question for the group...

If Thomas Jr is available at #32 are we taking him?

His opinions are a bit polarizing, but I noted the following:

-Mitchell catches 90% with his body
-Legette better than DK Metcalf
-Franklin, he kept getting distracted by #15 instead
-Worthy is this year's Tank Dell
-Polk is a dog
-Rice Jr runs like Pachecco, harder than anyone
-Dez Walker shoulda gone back to school
-Corley is the steal of the draft
-J Wilson can't chew gum and tie his shoe at the same time
-Thomas Jr is growing on him

Smith's not my favorite, but he's won a following after calling Cooper Kupp apparently.
In the PFF simulator I've been trying to pair our 32, 64, and another pick to get both Worthy in the early 2nd and Legette in the mid 2nd. Those two with Rice and Kelce could be crazy, but we'd have 3 WRs coming off their rookie deals at the same time.

Edit - Keep forgetting we got Rice in the 2nd, not the 1st. So we don't have a 5th yr option. He just played like a 1st round pick.

Lots of options when your only real need is a WR and the upcoming draft is historically loaded with them! Going to be a really exciting offseason!

I want a WR who has comfortably passed 1k receiving yards in their last season. I'll be fuming if we go and draft this Ladd McConkey kid that the mock draft wetwipes are gushing over.

Spent a few hours watching these guys last night. Seems like a helluva draft class. Probably another year where we take a 2nd round guy.

Agreed. I wouldn’t be surprised if we waited until the third round to pick a WR because of how deep this class is. I would be surprised at all if we draft fatties for our first two picks. I’d bet DT with our first and OL with our 2nd.

This is our wr room by regular season receiving yards.

Rice
Watson
MVS
Skyy Moore
Kad Toney
Mecole Hardman free agent
Richie James free agent
Justyn Ross

Whether we like it or not, I expect MVS, skyy and Toney to be back. I also expect Ross to be back. Will we resign Hardman? I don’t know. If he’s cheap, we might. Richie James is gone. We also need a punt returner. The depth at WR in this draft might allow us to take a WR later and Our oline and dline are more of a need.
