WR thoughts
Good day,

Rookie here who doesn't live in the KC area. Looks like you all have your fingers on the pulse of the CHIEFS so I wanted to subimt an opinion and ask you yours, if that's ok:

To go back to a few years ago when the CHIEFS let Derrick Alexander go...I lived in Ann Arbor, Mi. at the time and watched the Lions enough to know Johnnie Morton. He was a decent, solid receiver who could strecth the field enough to grab those tough and much needed clutch bombs and mid field passes. From what I saw of DA, he provded the exact same service and the CHIEFS didn't move forward, but even backwards a bit with JM. Why did they let him go? Was he pissin people off over there?

Mark Boerigter - "The great white hope", a big tall dude who can catch the ball but doesn't seem to get much atention. Since the CHIEFS can't seem to get anywhere with the WR's, and haven't for some time now, why not give him more plays?

It may not be a strong topic but I am very curious about him.
thanks!

Morton's problem is he doesn't have a QB the caliber of Batch, Gus or Mitchell throwing him the ball. Honestly, I think Morton's problem is that he is a #2 guy and he needs a #1 guy to consistently be there to produce. Morton can't be "the man" and I think KC brought him here to be "the man" and he's never found his role.

I think DA lives around here still. I've seen him at the Best Buy around 119th and Metcalf a couple of times in the past few years.
DA in all honestly was probably as talented a WR as we have had in KC in 20 years. Dude had talent to spare and at times was a "breakaway" threat. He could just never seem to put his head 100% into the game and alot of his stats were picked up in garbage time as you mentioned above. DV cut him because he was too lazy to practice and only played when DA wanted to play. Its too bad really, because he was a pure talent.

Good points, hes a decent #2 guy and the expectations for him when he signed here were a little much for what he truly is.

Morton was great as 2nd banana in Detroit. He got the big money to come here and be the #1. Problem is he does not have the speed to be anything more than a possession receiver and he doesn't have the hands to be that. He was greatly aided by turf in Detroit.
Boe dropped everything thrown his way in his last healthy season after all he did in his rookie year was catch touchdowns. Hopefully his legs are back because he could be the starter on this team and is solid on ST.
Its a forgone conclusion that Morton is gone this June 1. If we have enough talent to get rid of Kennison as well, one of the oldest offenses in the league suddenly got alot younger.

Who is going to step up every week and replace Morton if he is cut on 6/1?

Bo or Parker. Trent has said the bo looks solid(corrective eye surgery also) and Parker stepped up towards the end of the year.

Someone who can step up every week wouldn't just be replacing Morton, he'd be an incredible upgrade.
