That risk is greatly diminished if that school belongs to a great conference (SEC). Also competing at the combine greatly reduces risk if that player is a standout performer. No system is guaranteed. Risk can be greatly reduced however. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His QB play last year was atrocious. But again, this is why these guys get coached. Pickens to me is the guy you know exactly what you’re getting. Not really any upside, maybe not much downside. Oh absolutely, it's PFF I'm sure the truth is somewhere in the middle on all these guys. Pickens reminds me of that AJ Green type, sticky hands and a "go up and get it" WR but he's slender so he might have trouble off the line. Of the WRs I've looked up (minus the guys we'd have to move up to get) , he seems to be the one that stands out to me. Guess we'll see, a lot of options with this much draft capital Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Senior Bowl is actually the best indicator for a productive NFL Career. Usually if a college player is productive, and is productive during Senior Bowl week, chances are hes gonna be productive in the nfl.

Burks really had a better year in 2021 holding onto the ball. He's got BIG hands (10"+) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's got BIG hands (10"+) That dude is a brute, reminds me of Deebo Samuel. Definitely has some sticky hands, like you said. Only issue, to me, is I guess I'm always looking for that extra speed gear and I'm not sure he has it. I'm not sure he could play out wide but isn't quick or shifty enough for the slot. Him coming off an end-around or some kind of quick hitter would be pretty filthy tho. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chiefs_5627 Posted April 8, 2022 Share Posted April 8, 2022 What do y'all think about this: https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.nfl.com/_amp/tyrann-mathieu-heartbroken-over-leaving-chiefs-after-three-seasons-in-kansas-cit “To be honest, if they would’ve offered me Justin Reid’s deal, obviously I would’ve tried to negotiate, but if that’s where they drew their line in the sand, I probably would’ve took it," Mathieu said. “I probably would’ve took it. Agents are going to do their thing, but at the end of the day, it’s the player’s decision whether to sign it or not.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chiefs_5627 Posted April 8, 2022 Share Posted April 8, 2022 I'm starting to think there's a little more to it than what he's saying here. I'll always be a fan of his but, to me, if it were that simple I think Veach would've tried to get him back. Not gonna lie, he didn't play his best ball imo with all the going for the strip instead of the tackle or be trailing his guy 10 yards behind with his hands raised. I'm starting to think the front office had their suspicions of a decline coming, coupled with (nothing substantiated but) some of his possible contract demands, they decided to move on. Having said all that, if Veach could get him on a 1 year deal to be the 3rd Safety I would be happy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'll fight for catch and yardage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if there was a disconnect between what Mathieu’s agent and Mathieu are saying. All we’re hearing is he’s not signed because his price may be too high and he’s waiting for it to be met…then this comes out. Our defense could certainly still use his heart and his leadership, his wife has the business on the plaza. Some sense to be made there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EMAW_KSU Posted April 8, 2022 Share Posted April 8, 2022 DJ Hayden got waived and somewhere in my brain I am imagining Brett Veach as Hannibal from the A-Team saying “I love it when a plan comes together.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had a great Senior Bowl week. He's a fav of mine. I'll be excited for PMII if the Chiefs select him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Former 1st rounder that never lived up to the hype…should be fresh! Though I’ll admit, didn’t think he was that old, guess that means I’m getting old.
