His role in this offense is perfect for him. Crap he could have a long career here by just scoring redone TDs. He doesn't get tackled!

Hammock Parties · 01-12-2023, 10:41 AM

9 TD in 6 games

I think we should try to find a RB on day 3 of the draft that is like him due to his injury history.

Drafting a guy to take over for Jet in 2024 is absolutely the right call.

Do you know how many 225-lb reps Jerick McKinnon did in the NFL combine?

32.

He did 32 reps.

Most offensive linemen don't do 32 reps.

He was tied with this guy, Rashede Hageman, who weighed 320 pounds:

Damn that's crazy. Not surprised though based on the way he blocks.

KCJake · 01-17-2023, 01:49 PM

32 reps absolutely incredible.

I mentioned it somewhere, maybe in this thread, but his measurements at the combine were just a hair under 5'9" and 209 pounds. I'm not sure if he's maintained that weight to this point, but either he's slimmed down 20 pounds or he has the densest muscles ever because he looks like he goes about 175.

Initially I thought he probably just lost some weight and was playing closer to 190, but now I believe his muscles are just packed onto his body like a tiger because 32 reps at 209 lbs is insane.

Yeah! I see him next to Patrick Mahomes II in the backfield and I think he's tiny. But he's listed on the Chiefs roster at 209. Maybe they're just carrying that forward from old listings or something, but you'd think that these guys get weighed pretty regularly. And he gets through tackles like a guy who weighs a lot more than 175.

I think you're right. He's just all dense muscle mass.

This has been a pretty interesting thread that was started by Dante84 back in 2021.

Some people were very much against the Chiefs signing Jerick McKinnon but except for his injuries back in 2018 and 2019 (before Chiefs), he has been a good football player in the NFL.

Jerick McKinnon has also been a very inexpensive player for the Chiefs. His cap has been $721,667 in 2021 and $1,047,500 in 2022.

Hopefully Jerick McKinnon can have a very good run to the championship, and we can still bring him back next season.

Wilson8 · 01-17-2023, 02:58 PM

Now lists him at 201 lb

**RealSNR** · 01-17-2023, 03:47 PM

The guy went bonzo fantasy points-wise (I think it was the Seattle week?) and knocked me out of the playoffs in my league. I was playing Pacheco, who had some decent yards and a TD, but not like McKinnon's 3 TDs or whatever it was that day.

And I've never been happier to lose $50

Jet seems like a likely candidate.

The type Wylie is playing on (and Sherman had played on) isn't available for McKinnon because he hasn't been on the team for 4 years.

The other deal is for the vet minimum (plus a modest bonus) and only counts at a 2nd year players minimum to the cap.

So for him to be doing us any favors he'd have to be willing to sign a one year deal for the minimum for his years. Which I don't see happening.

It was so obvious by about November of last season that this guy was our best RB.

Now with Pacheco it's an open question, but McKinnon excels at so many of the things we need RBs to do well.
