Thinking hypothetically what that would look like, you'd have McLaurin on the field for like 80% of snaps. Then a roughly even share between Shakir, Palmer, and Coleman I would think. The formational versatility would be unreal and we'd have a legit #1 WR... All of that and returning the same elite run game that we had last year. Not going to get my hopes up but man that is tantalizing.

Man if the financials really are possible then that is really tempting... Feels more likely that they don't trade him anywhere and this is just a tactic to accelerate negotiations.

The CTW Podcast is on my blacklist now, don't be mad at me! As far as McLaurin of course I would love to make this trade, I just don't see how it's financially possible. We've already tied up a lot of resources on re-signing our own players. We are going to have to roll with what we have and hope for the best.

3 of them.

The run game would suffer a bit, as it did when RVD stepped in against KC last year, but yeah we could manage a few games if we really needed to.

@Ethan in Cleveland please start a thread asking when can we start to freak out about not winning a Super Bowl.

Seems like he's been pretty clearly the best and most consistent pass catcher in camp. That rep is exactly what you want to see from his skillset. No he doesn't get yards of separation but he's still able to use his strength to create leverage and then makes a strong catch for the TD. It appears the work he put in this offseason is paying off.

As someone that didn't care for the pick I've become very intrigued about Walker. His biggest concern coming into the NFL was the back injury and questions about his commitment and work ethic. Well he gets to camp and is already fully healthy and seems to be carving out a role. I still don't feel overly great about his long-term prospects, but for this year and the next couple years? With his raw physical traits he could be a game changer even in a rotational role.

Maybe that wasn't his fiancee, it was a random woman and his game is just that good.

Meh. Ravens are 0-1 against them, and they held the Chiefs to 17 points in that one loss it was just their offense couldn't get anything going. Bengals are 1-1. We're 0-4 while averaging 28.25 PPG. So I wouldn't classify it as just "an AFC problem." Beyond the annual wildcard participants, we're the primary reason the Chiefs dynasty exists and that's despite our offense performing quite well over the course of those games.

They've actually had good info before, including with injuries, I've followed them for a while. Not sure what happened this time around. Very happy their source was wrong of course. That will be the last time I post their info on this forum though because I can no longer trust them.

Huge huge sigh of relief. Tre White was well on his way to winning the competition anyways so this injury doesn't affect our season at all. My concern with it was that I think it's likely our 3rd CB will have to play meaningful snaps this year and I'd much rather Hairston's upside be available for that role vs someone like Dane Jackson. Now we know Hairston will be back in plenty of time to take on that role and can use his time off to study the mental game, plus his long term career won't be affected. Impossible to overstate how good this news is.

Great news!!

Yeah I was about to post this too, a couple people on Twitter screenshotted Hairston's reply before he deleted it. So hopefully good news. At this point I'm driving myself crazy riding the roller coaster, just have to wait for official confirmation.

Unfortunately this account's sources are usually good.
