For sure. They have so many needs and holes to fill, it makes mocking their pick tough [Reply]
The #Vikings are signing DT Jerry Tillery to a one-year deal worth up to $3.75 million, per source. A new home for the former first-round pick. pic.twitter.com/MOht4oI6x7

Then the offense will have more breathing room for our 20 sideways passes a game.
Yeah, with the caveat that I haven't seen either actually play, but that would be the cheapest route. just draft a burner to play decoy; hell of a lot cheaper.
Still need an actual WR from somewhere though. [Reply]

I would agree. But you have to start asking yourself, if you're Andy/Veach, was that first 7-8 games a harbinger of the near future? What if this season he can only give us what he did in the first half of last season (39/401yds/1TD, so 78cths/802yds/2TDs)?
I mean, sooner rather than later there's going to be a falloff in his productivity. When that happens, we're down to Rice and Pacheco as our primary weapons. Call me a pessimist, but I doubt that will work. [Reply]

He’ll be 35 in October and Father Time is undefeated, so it’s just a question of how quickly does the drop-off in his game happen and how much load managing will the Chiefs need to do with him to ensure he’s healthy/productive for the postseason run. [Reply]

The only way to plan for a post-Kelce future is to grab a potential #1 WR.
The only guy that profiles like that in striking range (I am assuming we don't move into top 10 for a Nabers or Odunze) is Adonai Mitchell.
But we would have to move up a bit and I don't see Veach doing that for a position he doesn't value. [Reply]

Again, I would agree.
My point has always been if you're going to load manage Travis, you actually need real weapons as options. And in the short term that might mean paying for a guy. But if our weapons consist solely of Rice/Pacheco, and a pile of JAGs/chickenshit, Travis has to take up most of the slack.
Sure would be nice if he didn't have to do that every season. Especially since this is one of his last seasons. [Reply]

Gonna need to hit on the draft again.
Top 3 WR’s are off going top 10 and I don’t see any way Thomas Jr or Mitchell fall anywhere is even being able to trade up.
Jags were willing to give Calvin Ridley money. They obviously wanted him back. They aren’t done at WR. Bills met with WR more than any position at the combine.
They need to hit on a Worthy, McConkey, Legette, Wilson etc that will be available to them. [Reply]
