Conley had some insane Combine numbers. He's got the ability, he's just never shown any of it on the field.
I like Robinson a lot though. He's also pretty talented, and seems to have good focus. Looked to have a nice relationship with Mahomes last year too. May the best man win...

But he's never really looked like he could use that as a WR. |

Conley looks more polished than Robinson. Nor do i recall Conley ever missing on as many catchable balls as Robinson did in that Denver game. Conley also tested insanely well at the combine, so it's not as if Robinson is this fantastic athlete and Conley isn't because their combine scores would say quite the opposite.
With that said, i'm rooting for them both. I'm sure they'll both see time on the field regardless. It's a whole new season and Conley has to work back from injury, and Robinson has had another season to develop. It'll be one of the more fun battles to watch in TC/PS.

Robinson dropped more passes in a few games than Conley has in his career. His catch rate was barely 50% last year when every other WR in KC was over 60%. The only guy with a catch rate worse ( and it's not that much worse) was demetrius Harris. Think about that. Robinson has a knack for getting open, but I'm kinda surprised anyone expects him to beat out Conley. It doesn't matter how open you are if you don't catch the damn ball. Conley is faster, quicker, jumps higher... athletically Conley wins in every area. It doesn't take 'Randy Moss' to beat out Robinson. I don't see anything from either guy we can't replace pretty easily. Last edited by WhiteWhale; 06-13-2018 at 09:36 AM.. |

You say athletically, but that's not even close. Conley is objectively bigger, faster, jumps higher, ect. I'm not particularly high on either guy... but Robinson had his chance last season and essentially shit the bed with his barely 50% catch rate (compared to Conley's 68%), multiple drops in few attempts, ect. Put it this way. Conley needed 16 passes thrown his way to get 175 yards on 11 catches Robinson had 39 passes thrown his way for 212 yards on 21 catches... 10.1 YPC. I don't see where you're getting this. The eye test says Conley is a better athlete (as well as the combine) and he's more productive. What do you like about Robinson? |

But i agree, he's not the athlete that Conley is and doesn't have the hands or production that Conley does. But one guy is returning from a season ending injury and the other is building on his first season with any significant playing time. So it will in fact be a camp battle.

Assuming he's ok after his injury, Conley should be a lot better than Robinson.

Conley's only problem besides injury was Smith. He hates WRs.

Robinson showed against the Titans that he can handle the big stage, Conley has just been average ever since he turned up at Arrowhead. |

And In THIS preseason game against the Titans he made three big catches too. Now, show me evidence that Conley has this sort of elusiveness, separation and catching skills in his arsenal!!!..I'd love to see it. |

They both have their strengths and weaknesses, but they provide good depth at WR.

He actually took less to stay in KC. I thought I remember reading a couple teams were after him.

As far as separation goes, that's highly debateable. It's already been pointed out to you; Conley has been more productive on half as many targets. That alone should make you question what you THINK you're seeing.
