The Worthy Trade Keeps Looking Worse and Worse

[T master]

Give it up it's never going to happen especially because Beane drafts and signs his own and did so today tying up Shakir for the future .

59 rec 638 yards 6 touchdowns in a Chiefs offense that was meh all season until they played the Bills in the playoffs.

 

How am I supposed to feel about that? Maybe I’m one of the few who doesn’t really care about the Worthy trade, because I don’t see him as being an over the hump player for us!

He played in 19 games including postseason.  He had 78 catches on 119 targets plus 23 rushes for 1,037 yards and 12 TDs.

And most of it was rub routes and behind the line of scrimmage. He doesn't play to his timed speed and is too small to develop over the middle. He's a nice wr 3 tho. 

 

A premium Lt would be more impactful imo.

The Worthy discourse is weird. I don't get it. He averaged like 10 yards per catch.

Worthy led all rookies in TDs including postseason with 12, so he’s one hell of a WR3.  For the sake of perspective, Shakir has 9 in his 3 year career and just got a $60+ million contract.  

 

I’m curious as to who you think the premium LT available at 32 was.  I mean, a franchise QB would have been more impactful for the Jaguars, but I still think Brian Thomas Jr. was a pretty good pick.

No who’d I like instead of either Coleman or worthy? McConkey or DeJean

getting both McConkey and DeJean would have been a dream come true. McConkey may well already be legit as a # 1 and a lot better than Worthy imo. He certainly seems like Chargers # 1 in any event. No way we could have moved up 20 spots for DeJean in the second though.

As for Coleman its early days. I remain hopeful that he will develop into an impactful player.

He played 3 more games than half the league. 
 

Do it again, but for the regular season.

 

Worthy is a nice piece. I’m not sure he makes the Bills any better or worse than they are today.

Which premium LT was available late in round 1?

[Charles Romes]

Well now they have to pay $17M to someone worth about 5

I mean he avg 10 ypc... That's not why he was drafted. Anyone could've done that in Reid's system

Worthy was drafted for his speed and big play abilities in the first Rd....as an outside wr

 

Shakir was drafted as a future slot in the 5th ...

 

Different wrs , different skill sets, and different value. Not too mention Shakir is light year's better as a slot/yac wr than worthy is an outside wr. 

 

Coleman was a better big play wr before he got hurt. 

 

It's the one area kc had failed miserably at is drafting wr talent. Mahomes makes up for it tho. 

 

Buffalo won that trade going away despite the media silliness

Somehow he was the missing piece for this offense according to these people 🤷🏽‍♂️

Save the flaming please but Worthy just looks special. 
 

Beane needs to really reevaluate his willingness to give our biggest rival the player they wanted.
 

I know this has been hashed and re-hashed but it’s such a huge black eye for this organization.

What is the silver lining here? 

 

sound like the diagnosis of 

 

Shinny

High

Impact

Toy

Syndrome 

 

 

 

 

[Success]

Way too early to evaluate.

 

His best game was the Super Bowl, and so much of that was after the game was decided.  And I don't think any fan thinks we'd be using him the same way the Chiefs are.

So you feel good entering the season with Worthy as your presumed #1?
