To truck down anyone that gets in his way and to go up and snatch anything that is higher than the DBs can get to.

Him or Parris and if you have to trade up and abandon corner, so be it.

WR is our #1 priority right now.

We can roll with what we have in the secondary much more than wide receiver.

While Mahomes is everything we could ever want and more - losing Tyreek is a huge blow to our offense (especially with Watkins' inability to stay on the field).

I know tyreeks dont grow on trees, but we need something semi-close to maintain stability in what Andy likes to accomplish with the offense

this is true, but lots of teams run those types of plays without Tyreek. What you need for that threat is real speed; and all of the guys on Pug's list fit that bill, especially the sub 4.4. guys.

I believe Metcalf can learn routes. If he can learn routes he’s Calvin Johnson. If not he’s Dwayne Bowe

Let us not forget that Dwayne Bowe did have 150 catches, 2000 yards, and 12 TDs in his first 2 seasons.

If Metcalf can be that, draft him NOW.

What are your thoughts on Hakeem Butler?

The problem is that we would have to trade up and almost certainly give up our other second round pick

And that was with absolute dogshit at QB!!!

If we were to draft a WR I think Deebo Samuel is a good choice and Parris Campbell is probably the closest thing to Tyreek we could hope for.

I mean, I know the guy is a punch line now but look at his seasons where he managed to stay healthy. Dude had 72 rec, 1100 yards, and 15 TDs with Matt freaking Cassel at QB.

If we could get Dwayne Bowe right now, imagine how much that would help?

Trying to "replace" Hill is a fool's errand. He's a generational talent.

They need to focus on getting good WR's. Not the next Tyreek Hill.

Tricky question.

I like him. He's got good speed for his size, but doesn't have elite speed by any means. He doesn't have to be wide open because he will just body up and make grabs, go over top of DB's, etc.

I'm probably biased though because I'm an ISU fan.

The question is whether someone without elite speed helps Mahomes. It seems like one of the main reasons Tyreek was so lethal, is that he was paired with a guy who has a big arm. Big arm + elite speed worked for us. It allowed us to stretch the field, which helped Kelce, RB's, Sammy, etc.

Butler can stretch the field, but in a different way. The DB might be running step for step with him, but Butler will go up and grab it and there's no way to stop a 6'6" dude like that from snatching it up.

He did run a 4.48 at the combine, so in no way am I saying he's slow. He's just not like Tyreek at all.

I really wish people would stop with the "we need to find a Hill replacement". There isn't one. Go draft the best WR out there and change your offense.

I was a minute too late.
