For the right price I would like to see him in Shanahans offense. If he is healthy he would compliment Garçon really well.

The NFL is just going to keep falling for the mirage of Sammy Watkins.

He's like a shiny object you can't take you eye off of. Like the QB with superhuman arm strength, but never figured out the accuracy part.

KC is going to regret it. So glad we have a HC that knows what he's doing and see through it

Seriously. I'm shocked he got what he did.

He's talented but once again...guys don't get moved if there isn't something else going on. I know at Buffalo there were reports of him being lazy and not putting in the hard work. Something about him going to a casino when he should've been rehabbing an injury or something else like that.

And honestly yeah he had nice TD totals last year but dude got outplayed by Robert Woods and Goodwin who were his "backups" at Buffalo.

Moncrief is the next one to get overpaid by some other team, after which we'll see a number of "good, we didn't want him anyway" posts.

Most who wanted Moncrief, including myself, only wanted him if he came at a discount.

Lol yeah and what makes me happier is that the Rams gave away a 2nd round pick for that guy.

Ton of potential, but has yet to realize it. Not worth the money IMO, but I will say that he made a good choice by going with the Chiefs.

If Andy Reid can't get him to perform, nobody can.

KC really needed a more accomplished route runner than Tyreek Hill. This will make Mahomes job easier.

High risk/reward deal for KC.
