We saw this with the Watson crowd. And now with CEH and Gay.

I'm certainly guilty of tunnel vision on certain players but Wilson isn't the entire reason behind the grade and overall for my worry with the Gay pick. I've had a hard-on for others that have flamed out and been worried about some that panned out so it's absolutely imperfect science.

The Chiefs swung for the fences with Kpass and he's just becoming a serviceable reserve. They swung on Breeland Speaks, misused him, and he's a flame-out or so it appears. I championed that pick so yay me... perfect example. They swung on Hardman and he looks to be a solid player and I didn't particularly love the pick. I was much higher on Parris Campbell and Terry McLaurin but chalked it up as maybe being too much of an OSU homer.

The "safe" guys they took in 2 like Jones and Thornhill have been or look to be home runs. Hell, my opinion was Thornhill was a 1st rounder. He played like one.

Gay worries me a ton, and for a 2nd round pick heading into the Mahomes' contract era I don't like that feeling. As I said, hopefully I'm wrong and Veach and Co are right. I'd rather eat crow on a stud than boast about being right about a flop.
