I think the ONLY reason Hardman was taken over Metcalf was because he graded out way closer to what Tyreek did for the team while DK would be more of a downfield guy. Tyreek had a very high chance of not being a Chief with everything going on at that time.
Also it seems Reid likes to have some kind of speed deep threat plus over the middle hands guy, regardless of size. Regardless if its through the draft or free agency....Terrell Owens for example, Sammy for example, JuJu for example, Trading for Toney for example.
DeSean-Deep
Maclin-Hands guy
Tyreek-Deep guy(could do more of course)
Sammy-Hand guy
Hardman drafted to replace Tyreek.
Think currently one could argue that Reid already HAS his two main guys...
Toney-Speed and deep guy moves like Tyreek
Skyy-Hands guy
Can also throw MVS in there to mix in with Toney as your Deep guy.
I just think Reid couldn't care less about size, to a point, and more on speed and what role they would have...fill a need?
I think a lot rides on how Skyy has looked this offseason as I believe he has went to every camp Mahomes has held. If Mahomes/Reid/Veach feel Skyy is ready then WR might not be a huge need other than Toney's injury history.
