TRADE FOR A WR

Not open for further replies.
Watson was taken at 34, BoneyT at 50 after the trade-up.
In that draft, I was all for us trading up to get him. It's too bad he's been hit with a lot of injuries. I recall reading that in college, he could play X,Y, and Z. He also was a KR and was sometimes used out of the backfield. He had sub 4.4 40 speed and didn't need to add any weight.
 
The Chiefs are 15-2, I wouldn’t call any of their WR’s irreplaceable. They traded the best WR in the entire NFL in Tyreek and won two more championships, they won with Juju as their #1.

Fans overrate the WR position entirely. Teams win with a good collection of #2’s all the time. Blocking and QB play is far more important.
1. We don’t have any number 2 WRs on our team
2. Most teams win super bowls with a quality # 1 WR
3. The chiefs have Patrick Mahomes. Drake maye is no Patrick Mahomes and never will be. Expecting him to produce wins with sub par talent is a recipe for disaster
4. You grossly underrate the WR position
 
1. We don’t have any number 2 WRs on our team
We do… better blocking and scheme will reveal this and Bourne will be a year removed from surgery.
2. Most teams win super bowls with a quality # 1 WR
This is a myth
3. The chiefs have Patrick Mahomes. Drake maye is no Patrick Mahomes and never will be. Expecting him to produce wins with sub par talent is a recipe for disaster
We don’t need Mahomes, if Nick Foles and Joe Flacco can win rings and Eli Manning can win two just being really good should be enough.
4. You grossly underrate the WR position
Edelman has three more rings than Randy Moss and Calvin Johnson. The Chiefs traded Tyreek and won two more rings… so no, not really.

Agreed. But Drake was drafted into a terrible situation. Glad the ownership fixed the situation and gave him a great HC.. Drake's tenure has just begun he has the ability and potential to be a top 5 QB.. let's see what his OL and play makers are come the offseason.
 
How about signing this guys in FA WR Dyami Brown Washington Commanders. He seems to be making a name for himself in the Playoffs: have close to 200 yds in two playoffs games.

 
When will the Pats break the “can’t draft a WR” curse?

What happened to invisible man KJ..Ozzie.. who hasn't had a catch since training camp.
 
I am putting almost all on BB minus last year. Hoping Vrabel breaks the horrible trend.
Your right PF2.. Scott pioli said bill told him he didn't need any WRs becuase he had gronk!....

HE Sucks! please stop we can get Much better in FA.

Mahomes had Kelce, a Hall of Fame pass catching TE his whole career. Let’s stop the myth that you don’t need talent at the skill positions.

Who? Chris Godwin maybe.

Tee Higgins is a smidge better but not worth #1 money anymore than Bourne is.

Draft better, this isn’t hard.

What has history taught us Wozzy??

They would have done better to draft Watson at #29 and then trade up for Strange or whomever they could have gotten with their second pick. But the issue is what to do now and Watson unfortunately isn’t an option. I’m OK overpaying for Higgins, I don’t see Godwin or Cooper as the solution but if they are brought in I’m onboard.
