One of the best WR prospects at the catch point and winning leverage mid-route. He consistently sets up defenders to put them on his back, locates the ball, and attacks it at the highest point.
Rashee Rice was drafted with pick 55 of round 2 in the 2023 draft class. He scored a 9.53 #RAS out of a possible 10.00. This ranked 145 out of 3062 WR from 1987 to 2023. https://t.co/lwD9tvVPvvpic.twitter.com/YjucxErSE1

At least he wasn't drunk. Maybe the NFL should require rookies to hire professional drivers.
Yeah, very convenient to be driving a Lamborghini after 3am when your dog is having an emergency and you can go 85mph above the speed limit. [Reply]
All I know is a ton of people on social media doubt this guy and say he doesn't separate, but then Peyton Manning was on Twitter and said something like he's a quarterback's best friend and he would rather have him than any other receiver in the draft or something along those lines it may not have been quite that extreme but was very complimentary.

EDIT: It looks like this Tweet is actually fake, so he didn't say it but he probably meant to say it so it's close enough.
HOF QB Peyton Manning had high praise for Chiefs receiver Rashee Rice.
“He’s the perfect receiver. He has speed, hands, incredible route running, can find the soft spot in zone. He’s the type of player that’s a QB’s best friend.” [Reply]

Good, glad he meant to say it, I was worried at first. LFG!!! GO RICE OF CHIEFS!! [Reply]
By the end of the season he'll be a more dangerous player for us than JJSS was for us by the end of last season.
There's just not a single thing JJSS did that Rice is incapable of doing. All it will take is the football savvy and scheme retention to get it done. I absolutely believe he will.
Rice is going to be legit. Not a homerun hitter but a very strong, steady player. I think he can eventually give us what the diminished version of Watkins was able to give us. Good physical play over the middle and strong YAC production, especially on designed quick-hitters in space. [Reply]

Yeah. A couple things surprised me when juju got on the field.
1. He’s slow as fuck. Seemed like I’m misremembering or he was way faster at Pitt.
2. I couldn’t believe how incredibly wide the hell open he was. Reid schemed him some good ass plays.
Rice learns the playbook and sees the field, he’s going to be much better than Juju. Juju had a little more girth and could do some TE type things, but Rice -provided he can do the mental side - is going to be a lot better. [Reply]

Manning getting his info straight from MVPat. [Reply]

There are some bad separation comments in that tweet. [Reply]
