Why can't Tyreek be our #1 WR?
The more I'm sitting here thinking about how explosive and quick this guy is, I start questioning why can't he be our #1 WR?
Antonio Brown is probably smaller than he is. NONE of the Chiefs WRs have better hands than he does. NONE of the Chiefs WRs get more seperation. I heard that there was some report that claimed TH has the most seperation of any WR in the league. It was statistical analysis by one of those Pro football statistician sites. Why can't he be our #1? Anyone have a solid answer? http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap300...-in-separation Last edited by wutamess; 02-02-2017 at 03:04 PM.. |

Knowledge of the game plan. Lack of route ability

He can be a better Julian Edelman if he becomes a great route runner. Imagine that speed plus precision route running combined. |

The person that stands to benefit the most with Tyreek on the field is Kelce as his YAC should increase with the safety concerned about giving up the deep ball |

What does 'lack of route ability' mean?
Because Hill is already among the most crafty route runners we have on the team. Maclin and Kelce are better than him and that's it. Hill's a shockingly good route runner. He hasn't learned the entire scheme yet so it limits their ability to use option routes with him but as far as straight up route running goes, he's going to be elite. As to the OP - he can be and he will be in short order.

Don't you expect that diminished significantly as the year progressed?
Another camp and he'll be fine in that regard. I figure that happens more often than we realize and he won't have to bat 1.000 to be within the margin of acceptable error.

I think he was fine this season, and I don't know how anyone knows what route he was supposed to be running Last edited by SAUTO; 02-02-2017 at 04:56 PM.. |

IIRC, Reid has already said that he anticipates upping Hill's snaps substantially next season.

Don't think he's as polished a route runner as he needs to be just yet.

The route he ran against the Steelers and didn't have anyone within 20 yards of him was a good one
