Xavier Worthy - WR, UT

- Early career production
- Dynamic threat downfield & after the catch
- Elite speed & start-stop ability
- Fluid mover w/ good route running chops
- Ball tracking is A+

Not entirely sure why the vibe isn't higher when talking about him in the WR class. pic.twitter.com/dv3JjdyZgh

I'll write something fresh about Worthy tomorrow morning now that he's a Chief to lay out how he's more than speed, but for now here's an excerpt from article linked in the below tweet... https://t.co/EcW7QtUrFF pic.twitter.com/811ahCEfMS

For better or worse, Skyy is getting another shot this year as is Toney. I hope to hell one of them salvages their careers.

By "shot" you mean to make the team, right?

Because they're both buried on the depth chart either way now. Reid didn't even mention him when he was talking about the WR group after adding Worthy.

Skyy will be on the practice squad at best. IMO it's more likely that he gets cut unless there are some unforseen injuries.

Eh...I think he makes the team. Annoyingly.

Assuming the Rice shit doesn't settle out this summer/fall, you're looking at:

Rice, Brown, Worthy, Watson, Toney, Moore, IMO.

They ain't carrying 7 this year, but I don't see them carrying 5 just yet either. Not with Worthy and Brown being new to the offense.

But I do think he's the last man in. If we carry 5 or someone forces their way onto the squad (Remigio seems like he could), then Moore's out. But I think that's a coinflip scenario at best.

You’d think Watson and justyn had a better shot at making roster / being buried since they’re bigger and we just got two more smaller guys

But the dolphins and chiefs seem to be stacking their roster full of short WRs.

Dolphins just drafted another good short wr

I honestly believe Remigio takes the last spot. I have no factual evidence whatsoever for my homeristic outlook. It's just my gut (which is wrong 78% of the time )

Well Hardman's not actually on the team...

But Veach has said that they're keeping in touch with Hardman, Smith and a few others.

Seems like they want the kids to earn the jobs and if things aren't looking great, they'll consider bringing back some of the veterans.

I honestly don't know what you'd do with Hardman, though. With Worthy and Brown both here, even if you subtract Toney and Moore, what does Hardman actually bring in their place that isn't awfully redundant?

He better start working on becoming the best special teams gunner he can be, if that's the case.

Fair point. But do ANY of these WRs look like strong special teamers?

Could just be that we use more TEs, Ss and LBers on the coverage units.

Unless Brown or Worthy get injured there is no role on this team for Hardman.

I won't stand for all of this Louis Rees-Zammit erasure.

I think this is right, barring injuries...which will happen...

Get used to it sir. That dude is this year's Justyn Ross type flavor of the season

I thought he was listed as RB
