Im indifferent but starting to think Veach won't overpay for one of these receiver trade candidates being discussed.
Is it realistic to expect Hollywood to be back for the playoffs?
I guess we are still waiting for more information on rice but from what I’ve read it’s extremely unlikely he will be back for the playoffs.
But if there are more optimistic, perspectives, it would be good to know [Reply]

The fact that the chiefs picked Fortson over remingo or Ross was surprising to me. The chiefs elected to go with Fortson and 4 TEs total. I guess the chiefs trust Fortson more. And really they trust Fortson more than skyy also. Fortson got at least one catch and I’m guessing more snaps than skyy. Plus skyy muffed a kicked return. He recovered it but it wasn’t inspiring. Long story short, I don’t see much hope for Ross, skyy or remingo. The chiefs value players that understand the offense, as evidenced by choosing Fortson. I wouldn’t anticipate the chiefs trading for anyone who doesn’t know the offense. And I hope it’s not drob. I think I’d rather see Fortson out there than spend draft picks on drob. [Reply]
Theoretical Question: What if the Raiders will trade you Adams or Miami will trade us Tyreek, but you have to give up Rice... would you pull that trigger? [Reply]

We need to get a guy now. We are way to thin at this position and we need insurance if we suffer another critical personnel injury. God forbid, we don’t want to enter any trade negotiations weaker then we are now. [Reply]

If Miami would pay some of his salary, I’d take reek and give up Rice in a heart beat. We win the Super Bowl with tyreek. Plus, what rashee rice does is replaceable. He’s a great yac guy but his routes aren’t overly complex. You can find guys like that. Finding tyreek…. Good luck. [Reply]
Rice is DONE for the season - FACT We got very, very lucky and there should be no issues for him moving forward due to the injury but not gonna be there for the rest of the season.
I think the best option is Amari Cooper. He is the most realistic option. Adams and Hopkins ain't happening. Get Cooper and let's freaking go! :-) [Reply]
