He's a great red zone threat.
You can use him on third downs.
I do think that you can move him around a bit to be able to manufacture some touches for him, even though he's not necessarily a yak guy.
That is a guy that you can just get over the middle of the field, right?
To run those dig routes, to run those crossers and a guy that you can go run, you know, those deep outs, those comebacks, those one-on-one fade balls.
I think that that's exactly what Kansas city has been missing in the passing game.
And to your point, talking about how rare it is that we consider a chief's pick in the top half, let alone the top 10 of the, of an NFL draft.
They may not ever have access to a wide receiver that can give you legit inside, outside flexibility, lead your team and targets, be a legit red zone threat the way that Carnell Tate can be, right?
And if you're not trading out at number nine, which if I'm Kansas City, I'm not unless I get blown away.
Because again, we might not be in this position again in the future, knowing that we have Patrick Mahomes on our roster.
go get a guy like Tate.
And I think that he's a guy that I wouldn't necessarily say he's bus proof.
I think it's just very likely that even his median outcome makes you feel really, really good given the situation that he's walking into.
Absolutely.
I would say that outside of the Fernando Mendoza pick at number one, this is probably the chalkiest one in my top 10, right?
Like you look, you know, you go and you search after I put in my mock draft and it was published, I wanted to go judge it against what else was out there.
And just about everybody, you know, all
people who do the draft, the people who do the national reporting to kind of tell you what to predict around the draft.
You see Caleb Downs, his name very often here.
And I think that a, not only is it a great player plugging a need fit, but I think that stylistically, this is a player that I think defensive coordinator, I'll go to needs in this backfield.
