Don't be a dick.
Otherwise, have fun, talk shit, freak out and lose your goddamned minds. It's Draft Weekend. The hot takes in these threads are so funny. I'll also be starting player threads for each of our picks as they are made, with videos and notable stats/takes in the OP. These separate threads will be made as soon as the news breaks, outside of this thread. I will link the threads below. Pure knee-jerk gold to reference in the future.
Sounds like the Chiefs are still targeting an LT for Round 1. If there's a crazy run on OTs, drafting WR is the contingency plan. 99% positive they go OT #ChiefsKingdom

I think he can be a 1,000 yard WR consistently.
He reminds me quite a bit of Emmanuel Sanders. [Reply]

At the NFL level McConkey is likely a chain mover, a guy that creates separation in his routes and is a consistent performer, that does have a lot of value.

OT or WR. It's almost like those are our two biggest needs and have been now for months before the draft. Rickey in FA is pretty locked in but this ain't it. [Reply]

They met with Legette and he’s been mocked in the first rd at best and one of the first few picks of the 2nd rd at worst.
If we stay at 32 I could easily see him being the pick [Reply]

Depends what type of player you want, if you are going for pure upside then yes I agree with that.
Very few of the WR's in this draft though come in with his polish. This is kind of an either or debate, I mean people don't realize McConkey's athletic scores are basically the same as Garrett Wilson's. [Reply]
