As far as separation goes, that's highly debateable. It's already been pointed out to you; Conley has been more productive on half as many targets. That alone should make you question what you THINK you're seeing.

Robinson runs a 4.59
6'1

Conley runs a 4.34
6'3

Mahomes either threw it too strongly or overthrew him on more than one occasion. The fact Is Robinson beat his man several times and Pat just wasn't on target on those occasions, which is why I don't put the blame on Demarcus. Secondly, there is no way Conley is more elusive or faster over a short distance than Robinson is, that's just bullcrap. Imo Conley is just a guy who can catch the odd ball here and there and maybe keep a drive going. Robinson on the other hand, has a great ability to beat his man and get separation, plus he can make tough catches all across the field.

Robinson showed against the Titans that he can handle the big stage, Conley has just been average ever since he turned up at Arrowhead.

Okay, so this is just you fanboing over Robinson.

Got it. Just ignore everything I said. You're committed to exalting another average/below average WR.

It's not worth it to me to even discuss it. Our season hinges on neither.

And all of them he got separation with the last catch coming after he dodged a jam and juked another defender.

And In THIS preseason game against the Titans he made three big catches too.

Now, show me evidence that Conley has this sort of elusiveness, separation and catching skills in his arsenal!!!..I'd love to see it.

:hmmm: Is that you Demarcus?

Conley is the better athlete, but my eyes tell me that Robinson is the more natural football player.

This is a good problem to have.

has there ever been a more overrated CP favorite than Chris Conley? I remember his rookie year where people were predicting him to get 600-800 yards.

They're both average

I think Robinson has a higher ceiling

Robinson's just a guy. If it's not Conley, it needs to be someone else.

Well the stats aren't the only thing that's important though. I mean, I saw Alex miss Robinson several times after he got separation and I saw Mahomes overthrow him four times against Denver, so it's hardly his fault, is it? Conley was also much more involved in the system, so of course, his stats should be better. The fact remains though that he only has one TD to his name after three seasons and that simply sucks.

Yep, I knew you'd run a mile when video evidence was presented!!..Where's that "athleticism" you've been raving about? ROFL

Best answer.

Neither will be special but Robinson look more of a football player and natural than Conley.

Robinson is also two years younger so he possibly has more room to develop. He came into this league young.

I gotta say it’s nice that these guys are competing to be our 3/4 WR...instead of 1/2 like we’re used to.

You said Robinson was more athletic. People are just pointing out you are wrong.

My primary argument was production and efficiency... which you countered by cherry picking a few plays.
