Persistence.
Think of how many WRs we've seen run their route and then kinda drag. These guys know where they are in the progression and if they look up and the QB's not on them, they know the progression is not coming to them so they'll meander a bit. It's a common thing.
With Mahomes these guys have to be !@#$ing animals. They have to run through the whistle on every play. That means a whole bunch of pretty good football players just wouldn't work here; the attitude isn't right.
I think you actually want some underwear Olympics champions, to be honest. Its counter-intuitive but if you can give me some toolsy guys who operated under the radar, those dudes are gonna come in here without the sort of prima donna bad habits that the more coddled WRs develop. They're gonna come in here with a chip on their shoulders and they're going to battle every snap.
Think of a pre-breakout Antonio Brown. Dude played at 100 mph all the time and just forced his way into the limelight. He had tools for days and people just didn't really realize it.
Gimme that. Gimme some toolsy small-school guys who will go out there, play their asses off and work their way in.
