If it was just about speed, any number of WRs in the draft or out in the wild would do, but it's not.
Tyreek had the freakish combination of speed and agility, making him the most elusive WR in my memory (about 40 years of watching the NFL). Then add in his huge improvement as a route runner, and his above-average hands, plus his competitiveness in the vertical for jump balls . . . well, there's no replacing that in this draft. Probably not for many drafts to come. [Reply]

That's the real shitty part of this whole fucking thing. [Reply]
Maybe Hill has learned a huge lesson from all this. I say give him another chance. Sit him for the year and put him thru all the rehab. Give him a modest contract 6 years 10 mil per year with a no beating the family incentive built in.
What an awful day this has become. Other teams getting better yet we're getting worse. [Reply]
Campbell & Mclaurin both still there! I’m sure Campbell will be gone by our pick but Mclaurin is really good- if he wasn’t splitting reps with Campbell he would have had a bigger year with the Bucks last year. He had at least 10 TDs, plays defenders tough too. [Reply]

Hunt had video. AP switched his kid and came back. Vick went to jail and came back. Somebody will eagerly give him a 3rd chance. Question is will the Chiefs treat him like Hunt and get nothing in return, hold on until they can get something in return , or put him back on the field after he pays his penance to the NFL. [Reply]
The team already knew that they had potential injury problems with Watkins. They also had to have some information about Hill and how they could lose him. The team failed to address the situation in free Agency. They could have had Golden Tate for 9m per yr.
They fucked up again.
The organization should have also been proactive in dealing with the anger issues of Hill and Hunt. I haven't heard anything about them doing anything at all. [Reply]
