How would you feel about Ladd McConkey at 32?

[kccrow]

Somewhere between underwhelmed and pissed depending on where Burton and Pearsall go because I feel they are fairly similar guys based on the information I have and I don't think any of the 3 are head and shoulders better than the other. Actually, I like Burton in traffic best. If those go bottom or 2 or later and we pass on a good player elsewhere, I'm probably going to be a little hot and think we reached for need.

Biggest argument against McConkey is Pearsall and Wilson can be had in rd 2 and they are also excellent fits for the same role.

He has the potential to be a good #2 or slot guy, I just don't see him as a #1 and great down field threat, which is what I think KC needs the most at this point.

Thinking the same earlier today, there are route running slot receivers that will be available for us at #64 so why take McConkey.

There's just nothing special about him.

I think McConkey can play outside in the NFL but I do think he'd be a better player from the slot in a system like New England used to run with Brady (Erhardt-Perkins) that features the guy as a primary weapon. I guess that would place him higher for guys like Sirianni, Daboll, Lombardi, etc. I do think he's still a good player here too, I just don't know with the guy.

He falls into the guys in the draft where you say "would he be a 1st rounder in any other draft," and if your answer is no then you have your answer. He's in that group for me.

Is there another WR in this draft who you guys would trust to get open more if you had just one play like Harman's or Moor'e in the last two Super Bowls?

...His reputation as the best route runner in the class and being a sure-handed pro ready product make me wonder if he wouldn't be the top choice.

Trust more than those 2 on a whip route? Yeah, **** yeah. Worthy. Absolutely no question. That kid's whip route is insane. I mean, that's if he's even within reach now.

2nd on my list would be Pearsall.

I meant more than McConkey, but looks like there's at least two WRs in this draft you like better in that scenario. Who else?

Probably Xavier Weaver and Anthony Gould

I just can't get past THE CATCH with Pearsall. You know, THAT one.

I don't think I've ever seen a one handed grab like that.
