STACKED’s take
Downs trade hurts Rice; loses targets to effective slot receiver in Chiefs offense
The Downs trade 'probably hurts Rashee Rice as well' because Downs is not a field-stretching WR who will fill the Tyquan Thornton role with limited targets and high snap count. Instead, Downs is a WR who 'if he's effective for this Chiefs offense, he will be drawing targets. He will be taking those from Rashee.' Flock Fantasy had Rice ranked at WR20 and says 'I don't know if I can move him much further than this,' but notes that 'if previously you had Rashee Rice ranked ahead of guys like George Pickens, Jameson Williams, Garrett Wilson, you probably should move Rice below those players.' However, the source still prefers Rice over Jalen Eggbuka, saying 'I would sell Eggbuka for Rashee Rice in a freaking heartbeat.'
