Looks like the Chiefs took another flyer on a Wes Welker type guy
Devon Wylie

Overview
Wylie is an undersized receiver from Fresno State who was actually never a full-time starter during his time there. He has battled injuries throughout his career, and this has greatly hampered his productivity but also has made him a hidden gem of a prospect who has fourth-round value based off his ability to contribute as a starter immediately in the return game. He is a burner whose 40-yard dash time will greatly help and support his grade despite limited playing time at a Western Athletic Conference school.

Analysis
Strengths
Wylie is highly effective as a returner, as he is very decisive and has the speed to make one cut and get upfield to take it the distance. As a receiver, he is very quick off the ball and gets into his route immediately. He understands how to use his quick feet to get off the line without cornerbacks pushing him off his route. He is a good route runner who can get open thanks to his acceleration and ability to break on a dime. He is a consummate deep threat and could be effective running quick screens and getting yards after the catch at the next level.

Weaknesses
Wylie is an undersized receiver who has been limited by injuries throughout his career. Teams will be turned off by his durability and inability to consistently see the field at Fresno State.

Sounds like yet another indictment on the McCluster pick to me.

The 4th round is where you get guys like this - not the 2nd.

Oh well - at least Pioli appears to have learned something in this draft. Baby steps, I guess.

I wonder if McCluster will even make it out of training camp if this guy pans out?

Maybe they can be roommates, and take turns getting piggy back rides to the field by the other guys during training camp!

For my money, we can do a lot better at RB3 than McCluster.

I think he's on the bubble and will be fighting for a job.

Was it Hamas who said that the McCluster pick was the worst in franchise history, given available players and team needs?

If he were black would he still be a Wes Welker type?

I think he said it was the worst height/weight/speed pick of all time or something.

McCluster is very small and not that fast.

To be fair he hasn't been here for the Dontari Poe pick.

As a Fresno area guy, I watch all their games and I'm not excited by this pick. Wylie is a little dude who is okay as a College returner, but I don't see him being anywhere as good as McCluster. He has good hands, but not the speed or size to do much in the NFL. If ever stays healthy he'll be an occassional player to use on outlet passes because he can catch and pick up a couple yards with quickness, but doesn't have the elusiveness to take snaps away from McCluster.

Dude ran a 4.39.

That's fast as hell. Does he not carry the EQ well? Some guys who are small and fast simply don't play fast at all.

Since McCluster is out as a WR, they aren't really competing so much with each other for snaps. This guy will be our 4th WR at best.

HE may be small but at least he is injury prone to make up for it.
