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.

I think Worthy tracks it better, showed better YAC ability and his test speed translates to the field more than Mitchell.
Then again, if you're a fan of Mitchell, you're probably also gonna be a fan of DJLN's boy, Walker, who can likely be had in the 3rd.
Me? I was a big fan of Legette when i started the process so i'll stick to my guns with him when it comes to these day 2 type WR's. Worthy, Legette and Franklin. I like those 3 for Day 2 Prospects. [Reply]
...I am just not impressed with Mitchell at all. /Shrug. I know im in the minority with that one.
But i was in the minority with Hyatt and Johnston last year too. Just gonna trust myself and wear the egg on my face if i have to.
That would be my order as well. All these late rumors on Mitchell have sufficiently scared me off.
Worthy may not a replacement for MVS/Hollywood, but would be a great complement to Rice. Worthy would take the short throws in space and Rice would work the intermediate zone. Draft a one-trick pony with speed to run the safeties deep in a later round and we're all set.

But we still need a LT.
Oh buddy, Worthy would be an outstanding replacement for MVS/Hardman. Faster than both and can track the ball better than both.
Both Worthy and Brown can do the JET Sweep/Screen shit and all that too.
But the idea of sending Worthy on go-routes all game long while Brown works the deep/intermediate and Rice/Kelce work the short/intermediate gives me a fucking erection.
Legion of Zoom back in KC. Teams would absolutely have to respect our deep game again, thus giving Rice/Kelce room to work in the middle of the field and give Pacheco more room to slam it up their assholes.

Last years offense in KC was based on gadget plays and throws 2 yards from the LOS.
So in this that context not a fit.
But it’s hard to have a top offense without a WR that just lines up outside and beats the guy across from him.
Oh the walls....on the door handles...under your shoes. Won't be able to go anywhere without getting splooge on you.
So if you miss the draft because you're at Kohls and you notice splooge on the bathroom door handle, just know that the Chiefs just drafted BTJ. [Reply]
