I doubt Beane is staying put at #33. He has probably been comparing trade packages all day.


yeah, maybe he’ll trade back into the first round ….

Yeah.

It was a combination of me liking Worthy a lot and disliking the Chiefs a lot.

So to sit around for three plus hours eagerly awaiting the Bills pick, then to see that the guy I liked was still on the board, then to see that we traded that pick to the Chiefs, then to see them use that pick to take the player I liked....I was pissed. 

Emotions sometimes win out over calm-headed logic. I am human.

I STILL don't love handing a 4.21 receiver to a team we historically can't stop in the playoffs, but I'll live.

I'm sure you've seen this, Logic, but if not, here's some more salve for the wound:

lol…..now Xavier Worthy is Tyreek Hill 2.0 🤦🏻‍♂️ 

Some of these takes....just jeez.  Hill is a generational talent and he's got 25 pounds on Worthy.

Two of those guys are currently on this roster

And in an odd and obviously tragic coincidence, two of the four fastest players committed vehicular manslaughter.

Last night's take was the most illogical opinion I'd ever heard you express, Logic.

 

In truth...just about anything the Chiefs do pisses me off as a matter of course.

I don't think that NFL players, coaches or FO staff bring the same emotions to rivalries as fans do.   After all, there's only a few hundred players, fewer coaches, and even fewer executives/owners, so they all know their peers.  Many, notably players and coaches, frequently change teams.  I think the pros' rivalries are more like friendly rivalries between/among siblings or good friends.  Antipathy between players or FO personnel is based on personal interactions rather than on the outcomes of games.  People who work at Ford don't generally hate people who work at Chevy unless there's some personal bad blood.  Fans' rivalries are often tinged with anger, bitterness, envy, frustration, etc. that stem primarily from winning or losing football games.   We fans hate the organization, the players, and the coaches -- unless,of course, those who come to our team.

Interesting analysis on the 5th year option and 1st v. 2nd rd salaries and new CBA.  Seems consensus now is that it's better to pick in the top of the 2nd then in the bottom of the 1st.   

I think it depends on the position a little also - WR has become SO expensive, there's no discount on the 5th year option really

5th option matters for QBs and arguably EDGE, but I agree with what you're saying generally. 

Actually, for QBs it's rarely used.  If the player is a franchise QB, he gets extended after year 3, like Josh and many others. Only the QBs who have an injury history get the 5th year option.  Meanwhile, the QB busts get jettisoned.  Look at 2021: 4 QBs in the top 15 got dumped before the team even had to consider the 5th year option.

On Sirius this afternoon...they talked about the Bills trade very positively...albeit they joked they want the Bills to pick and not trade down again at 33.  They mentioned a lot of scouts see Worthy as fast...but not of first round quality.  Many had him rounds 2 to 3.

Luckily, there’s only one sub 4.3 WR season in the history of the NFL

Where do you think the expression "Speed Kills" came from? 😎
