The Chiefs select: Stanley Morgan Jr, WR - Neb
With Conley leaving, the Chiefs need someone to step up into that 4th WR slot, maybe even the 3rd WR slot with Robinson oftentimes struggling to make plays within the offense.
Ratliff-Williams represents a nice high-ceiling option but his floor is such that I have a hard time putting too many eggs in that basket. Pringle looked solid in camp last year before his injury and Deiter will do in a pinch, but neither guy represents a sure thing. Moreover, Robinson is a FA and Watkins is a likely cap casualty in his own right. Knowing how long it takes a WR to be a strong contributor in this offense, looking to next year is never a bad decision..
So adding a really nice high floor option in Morgan gives us a nice group of guys who can fight for a role. If all of them look solid, you're gonna be able to back-fill Robinson and/or Watkins next year with that group.
