I think they're both pretty much the same, but they are going to be used differently. Webb's future with this team is probably as a red zone threat and/or possession receiver. Darling will probably have to find a niche as some sort of medium-to-deep threat.

Darling is the better physical specimen. He's got better speed, prototypical size, and he produced Webb's entire output last season in a very short timespan filling in for an injured player. But Webb's too promising in the red zone, in my opinion. He's got long arms, a good verticle, and whereas Darling seems to be a deferential, measured guy, Webb's cocky as hell.

At this point I'd say it's Darling's to lose.

Webb ran a faster 40 time than Darling coming out of college.

Our WR depth stinks so they'll both be around.

What were their times?

I believe Darling ran a 4.50-4.52, somewhere in there, and I have a hard time believing Webb ran a 4.4-anything.

Webb ran a 4.40. He has speed. Why do you think the Chiefs experimented with him at kick returner the last two years?

Oh teams always do that with WRs, CBs, and RBs. I just thought they were throwing him in the grinder to find out. I didn't know Webb sported that kind of speed, that's really surprising.

Regardless of whether you have a hard time believing it or not it still happened. Webb ran around a 4.45.

Red Zone Threat? He scored his first NFL Touchdown 15 and 3/4 games into the season.

If you actually think we are going to throw the ball into the endzone while in the redzone you are nucking futs!

No way in hell will Bag O Douche risk a turnover when he can kick his coveted FG....

This isnt Arena League ya know....

So this guy is as much as a redzone threat as Skip is....

**CrazyPhuD** · 03-13-2008, 01:05 AM

Darling is the better Center by far.

KCChiefsMan · 03-13-2008, 01:10 AM

defenses will be focusing on Tony G and D-Bowe and the running game, so if the 2nd WR can't look good, they just suck.
