WRs usually take a while to develop, and their learning curve is steep because Reid runs a very large and complicated playbook.
If the chiefs want to maximize the chances that a rookie can contribute immediately, than they should get one that is already experienced in the west coast offense: 2011-present University of Louisville - Offense coordinated by Shawn Watson 2013-present San Diego State University - Offense coordinated by Bob Toledo 2014-present Vanderbilt - Offense coordinated by Karl Dorrell 2014-present Wyoming -Offense coordinated by Brent Vigen 2008-present Baylor University -offense coordinated by Art Briles With that in mind, than these receivers start to make a lot of sense: Davante Parker 6-2, 210 4.48 Louisville Antwan Goodley 5-10, 225 4.50 Baylor Levi Norwood 6-0, 195 4.55 Baylor |

One of those guys sure would have looked nice on this team... By the way, if this team doesn't kick Dwayne Bowe to the curb this offseason then they are fools. |

2. Thirty three wrs were selected in the 2014 draft. If you include UDFA rookie wr who made an nfl roster the number in the nfl would be even larger. This means, at most, 30% are having success as rookies. If the chiefs are banking their hopes on rookies, than they need to maximize the chances of success, and the best way would be to target receivers who are familiar with the west coast offense. The below quotes discuss how complicated Reid's playbook is: Holy Gruden! Learning Andy Reid’s play calls is tall order for Chiefs QBs Quote:
