Lasley has a knack to track the deep ball well and is a smooth route runner with excellent hands. What impresses me most about Coutee is his acceleration after the catch. Both could be great additions but I feel the slot position may be targeted and thus maybe Coutee gets the edge.
I would not be shocked however to see the Chiefs move on from Conley and/or Robinson. Veach’s quote some time ago regarding getting receivers to fit what the offense will do with Mahomes resonated with me. I think they are not done re-shaping the offense by any means.

Yeah Coutee lined up pretty exclusively In the slot, but having watched a bunch of film on Lasley, he would go outside on the left and right hand sides, plus line up In the slot and be very effective too. If we get Lasley, it would allow Reid to cause all sorts of problems because he could move Lasley and Hill inside and outside without a problem.
I'd be happy with Lasley or Coutee tbh. Coutee hasn't had a workout with the Chiefs thus far though which is why I'm starting to think that Lasley might be their man.
