I'm not sure I would even call it decent.  Full of potential sure but a lot of unproven but talented players

Toney

MVS

Rashee rice

Justyn ross

Didn't Justyn Ross really jump off the page and excite them recently? That could've been a deciding factor or part of the process. I remember having a Chiefs preseason game on in the background and their local announcers couldn't say his name enough. I hadn't heard his name since Clemson was an unquestioned juggernaut.

For what it’s worth Chiefs fans are bummed that they’re losing this guy.  he has a ton of potential and looked amazing preseason

Really seems to be a good blocker.  If you can swap seventh rounders and get a roster player who is a threat on special teams and in some WR sets, that is a huge win.

Ross could be a HUGE steal.   He got injured after dominating that national title game.  He projected as an early first rounder at the time.   Had a big time injury.  Came back for one season but never looked close to being that guy he was.  But he looks to be getting back into his old form now.  So they likely could of picked up early round talent that simply was still recovering from an injury as a UDFA.  

I mean, his CFP playoff run when healthy on the way to that title was as dominate as it gets in the CFP era.  Only Justin Jefferson has had a more dominate playoff run.

He's on his 4th team but also only 24 and looks like he's developed and added some weight the last few seasons. I really like his potential. We are trying that's all I can ask.

He admits that he spent 2 years finding himself, but he feels that he has now arrived--I agree

they aren't loaded at the top end but they are loaded at the bottom.  Justyn Ross out there looking like the dude that dominated Alabama single handedly in the national title this offseason.  And he was a fringe guy to make the roster. 

My point was that the Chiefs are not 'loaded' at receiver, they have guys that are good enough and some guys they feel have enough potential to keep him off the roster. Unless he doesn't play special teams and someone like Justin Watson does, not making the bottom of the Chiefs roster doesn't mean a whole lot. This is a flyer-type move, which is perfectly fine.

Funny story about Chinn, since the new Madden is coming out my son decided to experiment with the Panthers roster on the old version. He moved Chinn to QB, which actually went pretty good for him. Chinn was spinning it pretty good and ran it well. Of course, it also helped that my son made Theilen 7 foot tall with max speed. LOL

Also, say what you want about Fitt, but this is the part I love about him and why I really hope his picks ultimately pan out and he's part of the hand that rights this ship now...  the dude isn't short on excitement.  He's always looking for a deal snd ones like this, Gilmore, and Laviska are the ones I really love.

You're propping him up for moving on from a 7th round receiver who's been on the team for four years? ok

Madden really does suck, now you can't even play different players at different positions.smh

 

If you a football fan I suggest getting NCAA Football 14 revamped. Possibly the greatest football game of all time. Although NFL 2k was ahead of its time.

You mean to tell me I cannot even line up Bryce Young at Defensive Tackle this year?

    • I was watching a YouTube and it was said that scout and GM insider types were saying the NIL had killed rounds 4-7. I don’t know that I buy it, seems like it might for a year or maybe two but then those guys have to move on.  NCAA is apparently about to give 5 years of eligibility. It is gonna skew those entrants older maybe.   
    • Miller being less raw and more pro ready makes sense of why they picked him. With us having a capable starter in Walker the lower floor higher ceiling player makes sense for us as well. I agree with that. 
    • I'm from Michigan and have had this discussion with my Lions friends, and they all agree with me, they were never going to take Freeling over Miller.  As, yes, you are correct, they could have left Sewell at RT and taken Freeling, but they are in a SB contention window right now. An OL with Freeling at LT and Sewell at RT is not as strong as Sewell at LT and Miller at RT would be for this upcoming season and likely at least next year as well. 5 years it could be looked back upon as a long term "mistake" to take Miller over Freeling, but for a franchise like the Lions, you can't worry about the long term when you have current SB aspirations.  It's all about maximizing their current SB window over the next 1-3 years. And it's not about style, it's about day 1 readiness, and a lot of "experts" aren't even sure if Freeling is ready to play Week 1 yet at the position he's used to, let alone switching to a side he hasn't played before, but a career starting RT is going to be more than ready to fill that role for them Week 1. I'm 100% convinced that if our draft positioning was swapped, we'd have still taken Freeling, they'd have still taken Miller, and both teams would have got the OT that they preferred due to what each team needs right now and what their current realistic aspirations are for the 2026 season. We're in a position where we can let our drafted OT sit and learn for a bit, they needed a week 1 starter, for me that's where this discussion becomes very easy to understand why each team took the player they did.
