He was talented. He had pretty good hands, good athleticism, good to great proprioception (body control/awareness), and I think decent but not exceptional speed. Pretty sure that if he were in his prime, I'd take him over JuJu 100 times out of 100.
But OBJ and DHop are a couple levels beyond what Bowe was in his best years. i think anyway. It's hard to say for sure, because he just happened to play on a very average Chiefs team, and I think a lot of his potential was just wasted on those teams.
Bowe was probably the closest comparison among Chiefs WRs in the last 20 years though.
