Chiefs WR Room for 2024

We all see the money WRs are getting. Zero chance Hollywood Brown is back here next year, dude is going to end up making $25 million a year minimum after what he does here this upcoming season. So take another guy and then in 2025 you have Rice, Worthy and the second rounder all on rookie deals for at least 2 more years. Then you’re set for a while.

I don’t know, doesn’t seem like a terrible idea to me. Thinking about what this offense might look like after drafting Worthy has me fantasizing about 2018 again. Load up and let Mahomes throw for 6000 yards instead of being a game manager. Watching those meltdowns on the sideline is not something I care to see again.

I view Worthy as Hollywood's replacement/insurance for 2025. They are essentially the same receiver, except one is a bit faster and younger.

And in the meantime you have two burners you can slap on the field together to scare the hell out of defenses. Both guys can run intermediate routes as well so they aren't limited like MVS was.
The speed we'll have on the field will be incredible. And we might not even be done yet....

How do they track the ball in the air? MVS seemed to be bad at that, especially on those medium to deep flag routes.

Worthy is EXCELLENT at tracking the deep ball. He has the occasional concentration drop like Rice/MVS but he's excellent at tracking the deep ball and positioning himself for the catch.

That's kind of what I'm thinking as well, which is why I want another one in round two.

I wouldn't be surprised either. I think if there is value there in round 2 or 3 they pull the trigger. I'd rather to do that than take someone graded lower that plays DE..

Nah they'll get a RB though.
