You’re such an idiot, haha.
Williams is a good number 2 deep threat and has had years of production. Im good with this.

To be clear, this is what I was expecting. Not necessarily what I was hoping for.
I think it's fine, though. When healthy, he's been pretty productive and a 5th is next to nothing. We'll have to see how he's used and if he's just washed up or not. I think there is some logic to having another deep threat with Russ's moonball that could help open up underneath even more for the RB and TE. If it doesn't, then hopefully he can make a big play or 2 a game. And I don't know how he is as a blocker, but he certainly has the size.
See how it goes of course, but I'd expect them to use one of their top 2-3 picks on a WR now.

Williams WAS a good #2 threat.
This was a bare minimum move. The WR has been awful since March. Cue ball has had months to improve the WR depth. It isnt like there was a lack of WRs available.
We upgraded over Van Jefferson…maybe.
Lazy ass move

Hopkins just went for a 5th that can become a 4th if the Chiefs make the SB and he plays like 60% of snaps. He looked pretty good last night.

Well you know the trade wouldn't have happened if I didn't make that dumb post haha
bare minimum move seems like the right one when the team isnt good enough to win a super bowl?

You clearly just like to bitch. And your nickname for Khan is dumb and sounds dumber every time you use it.
Any WR would love to play with Mahomes.Hopkins just went for a 5th that can become a 4th if the Chiefs make the SB and he plays like 60% of snaps. He looked pretty good last night.

Just post better
Wrong brother.
Seriously, though, good depth move with the injuries at OLB and how crucial that position is to the team's scheme.

Yeah I don't get the bitching and the bad take comments.
It's like if the Steelers gave up a lot for someone better it'd be bitching about that. There was no winning this for a lot. I'm fine with the deal. I feel like it'll work out just fine.

Well, Williams instantly becomes our second best contested catch WR. That is not nothing.
It allows for TJ to take off the plays he needs to without killing us, especially if Herbig is not fully back or something happens again to him or to Highsmith.
