This team just doesn't throw the normal back shoulder stuff like some teams.

It’s not about throwing just jump balls and fade routes.

Bigger receivers with body control can win if the QB just throws it to the right spot or shoulder.

Mahomes can make those throws.

The Chiefs with mahomes don't do those things.

Focus on guys that get open.

We don’t do them because we don’t have a Michael Pittman or a Tee Higgins.

If you think Mahomes wouldn’t do well with a Evans WR you’re nuts.

Well I'm assuming if they actually drafted him that they would play to his strengths.

They've had opportunities to draft and or bring in guys that would succeed the way he does and they haven't typically looked for that.

Just doesn't seem to be a preference.

We had the best separation WR in NFL history and we traded him.

Just get good players and Mahomes will make it work.

Agreed.

I don't think anybody is against it, it's just hard to see them changing their preference.

Hopefully Mahomes works the WRs out again.

Rice has worked out well, we could use one more high end young talent.

Yea, if the Chiefs throw a curveball and take Mitchell, I will be more than happy with the pick.

I just don't see it actually happening.

I feel this way about Keon Coleman, who is a hard prospect for me to gadge. The WR class is so good and so deep that I'll trust who Veach picks

I'm sure there will be a few rookie WRs at camp Mahomes this year, and Mitchell/Worthy are as good of a bet as anybody seeing as it's in Texas.

Go back and watch Coleman returning punts and running after the catch.

That's stuff this team values at the position. He's not just a contested catch guy.

There’s a play where he’s running towards the endzone and some little corner pulls up and he just puts his hand on him and pushes him away like a child while continuing to score a Touchdown.

I normally do look for the speed, route running combo but Mitchell and Coleman have my full attention.

Those guys are also gonna occupy a similar place on the field as what Rice does. I don't foresee them going that route.

Rice was playing the bully slot role last year.

We still need WRs that win on the boundary.
