Fair enough, but it doesn't hurt to be on Championship teams. 4 of them.
I am excited to see what 2Y does in this offense. I have come around on his fit with the offense.
But, I am still frustrated with the fact that, for whatever reason, we seem averse to tall receivers. Reid has watched our defensive backs get abused by tall receivers, but for some reason doesn't want a tall receiver.

We signed MVS. We also just signed UDFA Justyn Ross. JuJu isn’t overly tall, but he’s a big guy. Josh Gordon. Daurice Fountain. [Reply]

Sammy Watkins did make a difference to the offense, but didn't produce at a level that matched his physical skills.
Christian Watson is 6'4" and ran an official 4.36. You can't teach height.
Skyy Moore is 5'10" and ran an official 4.41 at the combine (even though initially it was a 4.37 I think)
They have nearly identical hand size, and played at roughly the same level of college football, except Watson was winning National Championships. 4 of them.
Having Championship experience is a valuable intangible for any player.
Players can improve their drop % with coaching and hard work. But players can't get taller.
So, initially I wanted Watson over Moore. But, I have come around on the fact that coming out of college, he fits the offense better.
Now, I am just hoping that Tyquan Thornton doesn't become a star.

I preferred several; Watson, Pickens,Metchie-even Pierce. Looking not very closely, I didn't get all the Moore live pre-draft. Looking closer, I get why they liked him. [Reply]

I'm not giving up on Corey Coleman either. [Reply]

Me too, now, and I am excited to see what he does with Mahomes.
But, are we forever locked into sub 6' receivers because they "fit" the offense?
How in TF does a receiver who runs in the 4.3s not fit this offense with Mahomes just because he is 6'4"? I don't understand.

And Watson wasn’t even on the board at 50 or 54. What are you talking about? [Reply]
