I wouldn't be so sure... Pachecco was awesome, but he was a 7th rounder for a reason. He's definitely not as good of a pass catcher as McKinnon. Glad to have him, love what he does, but he's not the complete package and is better in a committee. Imagine how amazing he would be as a change of pace back next to Bijan Robinson! CEH just hasn't worked out, 1st round expectations or not, and is rumored to be traded this offseason. But it is interesting that when Reid & Veach asked what Mahomes wanted with the 1st rounder after our last SB he requested a fast/shifty RB that he can pass catch in CEH. McKinnon was our #3 or #4 WR last year and is currently upset with our contract negotiations per Twitter. Gibbs is commonly compared to Kamara who gives you everything that McKinnon and Pachecco can in a single package, he's definitely fits the profile better than CEH ever did, but might also be capable of splitting out to WR as well. Reid would have endless creative options with a RB/WR like Gibbs.
