King isn't exactly wrong with saying Mecole has been Andy's "gadget" receiver, and there is nothing wrong with that when you've got Tyreek, Kelce and a healthy Watkins out there. And even when Watkins wasn't out there, Robinson played Watkins' role because Mecole was good at what he did in this offense, and there was nothing wrong with that either.
Things may very well change this season for him, and by the sound of Nate Taylor's comments they will. As long as Mecole can run the routes for the X and be 80% the blocker Sammy is, he might be the guy. We'll see.
