Mike Williams released.

And Brock Bowers was their go-to guy for the same years McConkey was there.

Bowers, Adonai Mitchell, Jermaine Burton all were there and overlapped with McConkey, too.

This is the one argument that I see that makes me double-take. His offense was very much centered around other things, but I still have to think that he should have more production than hes had. Personally, I have him as a Rd 3 grade to me currently. But if there's one position that booms or busts in the NFL more than any other, it's probably WR, so who the hell knows?

Wonder if a better trainer could keep him healthy?

[pugsnotdrugs19]

Even healthy, I question the fit. Mahomes doesn't like contested catch dependent WRs.

If Mike Williams wasn't peanut brittle it would be pretty amazing to see him play here.

[Dunerdr]

Best part is Mike Williams adds to the weird wide out market. watering it down a little hopefully.

Why bother scouting then?

Just draft the WR's that produced the most yards in their college offense.

McConkey, Wilson and Pearsall are all similar type of WR’s to me. They represent what I think Andy wants: a smart route runner with athleticism that can win in the intermediate and threaten deep. That would fit nicely here.

Hasn’t had that type of guy since Jeremy Maclin

I’d say the Mahomes restructure amount is quite the curious amount…it’s so large I feel there is a better chance now that Sneed stays.

What would the Chiefs even do with $35m in cap space if Sneed was traded? A lot of great players are already signed.

Yes, and where would he be drafted today? That's the point. Ladd won't last past 40-45, if he gets that far.

what could we do with 35 million in cap space?

Sign a tackle and sign a WR.

Then you need $$$ for draft picks.

Because production isn't the only thing that matters, but it is a piece of the puzzle. To act like player evaluation is as simple as only statistics or only tape evaluation is intellectually short-sighted. There's a balance of multiple facets, but typically speaking when WRs don't produce in college, they have trouble producing at the next level, so it serves as a red flag when guys have less production against lesser talented defenses.

There are exceptions to the rule, just like every other rule.

Yes, there are multiple facets and you are too obsessed with how they are used in college.


BTW, the analytics morons on Twitter are favoring Worthy and Franklin because PRODUCTION!!!

But will change their draft boards if they don't go high.

Just a total waste of time.
