Chris Conley #2 WR going into Training Camp
Haven't seen this reported yet, which is strange.
@TerezPaylor What's the depth chart order looking like as we enter TC behind Maclin? 7:47 PM - 17 Jun 2016 Retweets 1 1 like Terez answered: "Conley is the No. 2 and Albert Wilson is the slot, but Streater, Hill and Thomas all worked in with the first team during OTAs." I prefer Conley on the outside with Wilson/Streater in the slot like many others on here, so this was good news. Here is the rest of Terez's mailbag: http://www.kansascity.com/sports/spt...#storylink=cpy |
Maclin, Conley and Streater.

Is Mike Williams on the team?

A high draft pick made by the current regime that is early in his career is always going to get every opportunity to win the job.
Especially when he's in the 99th percentile for speed and vertical ability. |
I sincerely hope he shows the necessary growth to keep that spot, we need his size and leaping ability out there

Conley will get every chance to win the #2 spot.

Is anyone else worried about Rod Streater? These players on 1 year "prove it" deals can sometimes blow up.

Between the backs, tight ends, and what receivers we do have that have shown continued development... we can still field a reasonably dynamic offense without him, or a guy like Williams |
Quote:
Expectations should be very high. |
I thought Streaters salary was listed as $4.8 million on overthecap.com bc it was projected as him meeting the metrics of his contract?

But as a football team, this year... Streater panning out is a blessing, not an absolute necessity IMO |
Quote:
Conley's unproven, as is the rest of the WR corp. It's Streater's job to put up at least 750 yards and 5 TD's. |

I need him to have a good season after last year propping him up.

You're right that he needs to produce for his own sake. As a fan, as long as we get the production from someone he can hit the dusty trail when the season's over if he's not gonna contribute it. |
Chris Conley will be coming into the starting line up...and the force will be with him

The Chiefs didn't sign Streater to be their #1 wide receiver. Also, he signed a one year deal. If he puts up great numbers, he'll be in demand next year for every team looking for a solid #2. If he doesn't contribute, it's a one year deal and he won't return. Duh. |
Great.. like Wilson in the slot better than on the outside.
Of course, we might be loading it up on TE's as well, in which case Wilson would rarely see the field. If Conley can actually WIN the #2 spot, I think that bodes well for our WR core. |
The signing bonus for Streater was only 10k; most of the rest is salary and incentives.
There is a chance he doesn't make it out of training camp if Conley or some of the other newcomers looks good. Oh, and here is the salary information. "Rod Streater signed a 1 year, $810,000 contract with the Kansas City Chiefs, including a $10,000 signing bonus, $110,000 guaranteed, and an average annual salary of $810,000. In 2016, Streater will earn a base salary of $760,000, a signing bonus of $10,000, a workout bonus of $40,000 and a incentive bonus of $4,000,000. Streater has a cap hit of $4,810,000 while his dead money value is $110,000." |
I hope Conley breaks out bc he's cheap for a few more years. its a big upgrade that him or Conley will start outside bc Wilson isn't cut out to be in that role.
I wonder if Hill could take reps away from Wilson? From reports, Hill has been a natural at WR unlike DAT. |
If the Chiefs' offense takes the next step is will be because improvement at the WR position.
CB is the key position on defense, we need someone to step up and everyone to stay healthy. Everywhere else we are pretty stable. |

Good job arguing with ghosts. |

That is interesting.
A few days ago, TJ was on 810 and said that the most shocking thing about OTA's was how Conley did nothing...he wasn't bad, but he wasn't good. He was JAG. |

Or, Reid will just scheme heavier with the backs and tight ends to help pick up the slack Streater was a non-entity his last year with the raiders, theres no real reason to expect too much... they took another gamble on a youngish vet like they've done multiple times since day one and gave him an incentive laden contract Its not something I feel a great need to argue about, simply stating my belief that if he fails, there is enough talent on hand to minimize his failure |

That doesn't exactly inspire confidence in the position. Quote:

The Chiefs will need a healthy Rod Streater if they're to make progress in 2016. |

Also, many CPers have suggested, as you did, that Wilson doesn't sell out for the football. You all may be correct, but I'm hoping that what we saw was him guarding his hammy's so as not to induce a full-fledged pull. To me, he looked more like he was favoring his hammy rather than being timid about getting the rock. Anyway, just a couple of thoughts as we endure what seems like a very loooooong off season. |
By mid-season or later barring no injuries here is what I would like to see.
1.Maclin 2.Williams 3.Streater 4.Conley 5.Robinson 6.Hill - a muscular Devon Hester type with more speed that will not only be able to take a hit but break tackles as well on STs and will be awesome in the slot. PS - Mitch Matthews Wilson gets released. Guy is so overrated and when he didn't lay out last year for that one long pass it said everything IMHO. DAT released. Kid is soft. Nuff said. |

It would nice if the Chiefs had a breakout rookie or second year player in 2016 but I do not expect it. |
