****Our Wide Receivers Suck- Official Thread****

[Sofa King]

They can’t get open, they drop passes in their hands, their jet sweeps are slow and terrible. These guys are not good.

[jamison69]

How are we doing so good if our wide recievers are all f- football players.

Our Jet sweeps went from being lethal to pedestrian. Our PR game has dropped off as well. Yeah, we miss him. With that said maybe he makes his way back to KC after this season. Clearly he's not living up to expectations in NY. They're not paying him chump change by any means. His market has crashed.

After watching the Bears WRs running around wide open last night I'm starting to lean towards this thread title being accurate.

This is exactly what he was in Green Bay which is why they made no effort to resign him. He's a lot of sizzle, very little substance. He made some big plays in the playoffs last year though, so he gets a pass from me. He shouldn't be expected to play more than the role he's suited to play.

Other guys need to step up, MVS just is what he is. He will be gone next year either way.

I'd try to swing them a conditional low round pick to bring him back at this point to be honest. I'd give it 2-3 more weeks and if we're still seeing garbage results I'd be calling them.

I've always heard that it takes 2 to 3 years for WRs to understand Andy Reids playbook. We just need to be patient and they will come around.


I'm looking at week 8 they will start making big time plays and puts the league on notice.

I realize I'm going full O.City here but I would give our 2024 1st and maybe an additional mid rd pick for Kyle Pitts bc I think he's that ****ing good and he's only 23 years old. You're talking about a guy that still has 2 years after this year with cheap cap hits so theoretically you have to make a decision on Kelce when he's 36.

TE's also don't cost near as much as the high end players. Yeah. Sign me up if they would ever do it

That seems high but I think it’s absolutely worth being aggressive. I love love the idea of gray in 13 sets and it feels better suited for him. Considering I don’t think fortson can be considered reliable at this point - even when he’s healthy. It’d be like gronk and Hernandez except without all the murdering.

Hell, I would’ve considered someone like Kincaid or Laporta this year, but that’s a different topic for a different day

We are not trading draft picks for a player we let walk for nothing a couple of months ago.

A first? You're out of your mind.

Did you have this same feeling after Chicago played KC and their receivers had 73 total yards receiving and KC's receivers had 190 yards receiving?

A couple months ago was a couple months ago.

Maybe they just don't want Hardman back - which seems odd given that they clearly intended to make him a focal point of the offense in 2022 before he got hurt - but 'a couple months ago' they thought Skyy Moore was going to be able to step up and mitigate the loss of JJSS.

He hasn't been able to. It appears he WON'T be able to.

So set what happened in the summer aside. Hardman's one of the few guys out there who might be available, who fits under the cap and can IMMEDIATELY step into the system with a complete understanding of how it works.

Why WOULDN'T they be interested in him?

A first for Kyle Pitts who is averaging a paltry 35 yds/game his last 14 games played and has a grand total of 3 TDs in his 2.25 year career? Are you ****ing serious?

Put the crack pipe down and join us all here on planet Earth. I'd give up a third rounder next season and a future 3-4th rounder based on performance.

Then maybe Reid needs to simplify things instead of trying to force a square peg in a round hole. Reid's list of accomplishments is more than just about anyone in the NFL outside of Belichick, but his list of WRs that developed into top tier players at their position is pretty damn short considering how long he's been a head coach in the NFL.

That being said, I agree we need to be patient with Rice and Ross. Rice is very promising. Ross still feels like an uphill climb to become much more than a depth piece, but we'll see. But Moore absolutely was a big whiff.
