Also - wouldn't mind swapping out MVS for Lockett, so I'm not sure if we could partially offset the move by moving MVS in the deal or elsewhere.

Again - probably doesn't happen.

I would do this just to get rid of MVS.

Same.

Good idea, five years too late.

MVS has been everything I thought he would be. Just dont get why ppl thought he would be a 1k guy. With that said if we can get out of his contract and nab a real wide receiver we definitely need to.

MVS had 700 yards and is here to be that deep threat. Just run and pull safeties and keep teams with those guys back.

Toney with an entire offseason to work with Mahomes and Reid, holy hell watch out.

His catch rate is 51%.

It was a known issue when the Chiefs signed him.

Hes the exact player we envisioned and played equal to his contract

Agreed.

Honestly, their WR depth chart right now:

MVS
Toney
Moore
Ross (I know)

They can bring back Justin Watson, who for all our consternation with him sometimes, is an outstanding WR4/WR5. He's not going to cost much and he's absolutely willing to come back after having his young career almost vanish in Tampa.

JuJu's the biggest question. If you do, your WR is pretty close to being where it needs to be so long as you have that TE and RB room as good as it is. Maybe a draft pick finishes you off, maybe.

Without JuJu, they're going to need a guy, but Lockett doesn't seem to be that guy, he's a Toney, not a JuJu. I think Rashee Rice is a higher-upside JuJu, and now you have a hard decision for your first round pick, honestly.

Long story short: I don't think Lockett is what we need.

That's the way I see it. Lockett would cost us both money and personnel. I just don't see bringing in a WR over 30 with a $16.75M cap hit. Give the money to Juju, quit bitching about MVS and Watson, and move on.

I just don't know what JJSS brings that you can't get from Moore next year.

If you wanna get real crazy......call the Rams and see if they wanna move Kupp

And it seems like Mahomes loves to force feed him the ball.

Yeah, would love that. They need to rebuild and selling him off would be a great way to start that.

Every year, Lockett makes some of the most ridiculous and impressive catches in the NFL. His toe drags paired with his ability to concentrate on the ball during the process is truly impressive.

I have faith that the Chiefs can find another gem in the later rounds. Patrick makes everyone on the team better. While it would be nice to have 3 WR1s on the team, it's just not going to happen.

i don't think our current philosophy is to go after older players on the backside of their careers - that was more like 90s era Chiefs.

This is a great idea...

...if they are willing to come cheap to chase a ring.

But yeah, otherwise...
