Some fun here. Edwards-Helaire rushed for 1,415 yards and 16 touchdowns as a junior .. all-purpose yards -- receiving (55 receptions, 453 yards) and kick returner (KEY) 10 returns, 214 yards pic.twitter.com/3Duq1jjy6J
Holy offense Bat Man. I love Clyde Edwards-Helaire. He is best Rb in the draft. Watkins and Hill deep. Kelce in the middle. And Edwards-Helaire underneath. Good Luck defenses.
Brett Veach told Andy Reid to watch some Clyde Edwards-Helaire film and told Reid you’ll see Brian Westbrook. Reid watched. Then got back to Veach and said he’s better than Westbrook.

Also CEH had more receptions this year alone than Taylor did all 3 years combined. That is a huge part of his game and the Chiefs offense. He is just a better fit here than Taylor was.
When was the last time the Chiefs were throwing it all around to a running back? [Reply]

What RB was a big receiver in that Chiefs offense?
In 2017 Hunt had 53 receptions and as a group they had almost 100 receptions. RB's catching the ball is a huge part of Reid's offense, always has been.
I imagine they will have close to 100 receptions as a group next year which is why CEH was just the better fit here. [Reply]

Damein Williams caught 30 passes last season, that's 2 a game, he was the 6th leading receiver.
Hunt averaged 3 catches a game.
You are going to use a FIRST ROUND pick on a RB to catch passes? I get it in the later rounds.
You got it with.....group....so why change that?
Marshall Faulk was catching 80 passes a season, see the difference? Hell, Roger Craig caught 92.
We had a chance to get a bellcow RB who was considered the best in college football. Let Williams catch passes Maybe Taylor can catch passes.
Hell, Jim Brown 2500 yards, 20TD's catching the ball. [Reply]

And the zebra shows it's stripes - you are an absolute idiot and do not know shit about football. I live in Baton Rouge and I am a die hard LSU Tigers fan. I watched every LSU game since 1985. This was the pick that DESTROYED draft boards across the league. This is the ULTIMATE complement to the Chiefs offense - please come back when he is killing it on the field this year - Wow, nothing else to say - stay stupid! [Reply]
I sincerely request that every Ubeja Vontell post is placed through a sophisticated GloryDayz filter so that they are all filtered into a GloryDayz post.

I have to disagree slugger.
When have the Chiefs ever used any RB has a big time pass receiver, well? Come on, what Chief RB was brought in to catch passes, well?
No CEH won't be as productive as Taylor is going to be. Check out their HS careers, the NCAA careers, it's all Taylor and not close, well this will be no different.
So you know all about Steve Van Buren, Billy Cannon, Dalton Hillard, Harvey Williams, they should have used Trindon Holliday differently. [Reply]

Williams basically did nothing in the regular season and came on strong in the post season and of course, the Super Bowl. Now you have a TRUE two headed monster ala Thunder and Lightning and you are not happy? Are you even a Chiefs fan or are you a mere troll? FUCK OFF! [Reply]
