say no to midgets

Unless the midget has blistering speed, hands, jumping ability etc... agreed 100%.

Its too easy to cover a midget who doesn't have those equalizing skills.

nice read. wont post it here because it has alot of .gifs and video. Has a nice section of Marquise Lee's hands.

So, basically, what it says is that the Chiefs should draft Odell Beckham, Donte Moncrief or Mike Davis.

Gotcha.

Age vs Production for WRs and Rbs

[OldSchool]

LSU WR Jarvis Landry ran a pair of 4.58 forties at the Tigers' Pro Day on Wednesday.
Landry also dropped "three to four passes" in what is being described as a "rough" day. This all comes on the heels of a disastrous Combine that saw Landry run a painfully-slow 4.77 forty before dropping out of the drill altogether with a calf problem. He was also significantly shorter than LSU listed him in college. Landry is staring at a slide possibly into the 4-7 round range.

Landry in the 4th?

[planetdoc]

I dont want Landry. He is a posession receiver with limited upside.

No thanks. He's about as fast as Alex Smith (actually Smith ran a faster 40 and also a faster cone drill by a significant margin).

There's plenty of 6'2+ receivers in this draft that can run a 4.4-4.5 which we can pick up in the later rounds if not with our first couple picks..

Gotcha.

I think you need to add Jordan Matthews to that list. He could end up being the best WR to come from this draft when all is said and done.

This! Kid's a beast and has great body control to make difficult catches. I changed my mind about Coleman, give me Moncrief/Matthews plz. IMO draft a #1 receiver with either of the first picks and then pick up a midget like Jalen Saunders in the later rounds to handle PR/KR/occasional screen pass/slot duty.

[RunKC]

Been watching a lot of Robert Herron lately. Really like his ability and think he's a guy would like.

He has VERY deceptive speed. His straight line speed is much faster on the field than in a 40. Dude just plays fast.
Hell he lit up Texas last year for 170 something yards and 2 TD's.

And watching him at the Senior Bowl was very impressive. He owned the 1v1's. Would love this kid on our team.

[Chiefnj2]

Watkins, Evans and Lee are IMHO the clear top 3 WRs.

After that its a matter of system and fit. I think Cooks might be the best fit for KC because he is the best pure playmaker, but he can't block and has trouble with physical CBs.

[The Franchise]

Now Cooks can't block and has problems with physical CBs.....

That straight up made me not want to draft Marquise Lee anymore, and I've wanted us to get him for years.

Fascinating. I want to go back and watch all the combine WR drills again.

I'm with you. The more I watch this guy, the more I think he is everything we need. Smart, focused, big, fast, strong, and catches the ball away from his body with great (HUGE) hands.

[RunKC]

I'm just gonna say it: I want Robert Herron on this team

[DTLB58]

Might be a repost, but I thought it was a good article.

@HerbieTeope: “It takes two years for a player to get used to this system,” former Eagles WR Todd Pinkston said on Andy Reid’s WCO: http://t.co/KcZe0LusQQ

I should say this came off of a question I asked last night:
@DTLB58: @Jacobs71 If the Chiefs pass on a WR in the 1st rd do you think there will be options in the 3rd that could contribute right away?

@Jacobs71: @DTLB58 @HerbieTeope wrote a great article on how long it takes a WR to learn Reid's system. It would be tough for a rookie.

@Jacobs71: @DTLB58 Most fans would have big expectations and would likely be disappointed. Rookies have to learn nuances of game on top of the system.
