Gay is fast and hits like a truck but he has horrible on field instincts.


Best you can hope is Gay is running full speed and the offensive player runs into him and dies.

You're the first person to ever even mention that Willie Gay was a transcendent player. Most people identified him as a super athletic guy who could make a really nifty play or two here or there. Our LBs lost their fastest guy when he left. And the team lost its best protection against vacuum cleaners.

Lots of Gay lovers on CP.

That seems to be the opinion of most on here. And the NFL too or he would have been signed before taking the Chiefs lifeline.

Chiefs lifeline? Did we re-sign him? I don’t see anything that says so.

Perfect role for him is as a QB spy.

Which is exactly why he needs to be here.

Is it appropriate that I still hate that ****ing pick over Logan Wilson? I can't let this one go.

Wilson's been a better player than Gay, for sure.

Interestingly, I think the concern for most about Wilson was his ceiling - it just didn't seem terribly high. And ultimately hasn't it played out that way?

He improved through his first 3 years to become a really really good player in his 3rd year. But fell back quite a bit in 2023 and seemed to really struggle in coverage last year as well before he got hurt.

Gay was a ceiling over floor pick that didn't work out, but when you see how quickly Wilson plateaued in Cincy, you can at least see the rationale.

Maybe a new DC will get him back on the trend he was showing before he signed his deal.

Gay needs Bobby Boucher tacklin’ fuel

Pretend the ball carrier is a Dyson. He could become the next Lawrence Taylor

Back when Travis and Tyreek would lead those group groovy dances back in 2018 and 2019, Willie was far and away the worst dancer. He put in a good effort, but the dude had no groove in him at all.

Oddly enough, I’ve always felt that way about Chris Jones.

Idk if he’s truly not a good dancer or it’s just strange seeing a man as large as him dancing.

Hey, you try dancing with a giant cock plopping out of your pants. Believe me, it's not easy.

Yes please, he can cover those pesky Tight ends being Gay and all.
