And yet in that WR room Ross was deemed to be the best guy..period.
And as far as "explosiveness" is concerned can somebody tell me what makes Keenan Allen, Michael Thomas, Adam Thielan and Cooper Kupp super explosive? Because imo those guys win with their route running more than anything and that's what Ross excells at, plus he's got a huge catch radious and great hands.
Posters here can have their views but I'm more inclined to give the kid a blank slate and hope that he progresses through camp fully healthy before judging what he can be on the field on Sundays. Because at the end of the day the only opinions that matter where his talent is concerned is Reid and Mahomes and the latter seems to think that Ross is extremely talented..fullstop.

He had 46 catches for 1000 yards in 2018, that's a great ypc average but he didn't even crack the top 25 for catches or yards in his best year. To say it's some of the best ever is a little over the top.
