Rashee Rice carries an undeniable upside. He's averaged 64.2 yards per game since turning pro, has a 74.6% catch rate and 14 touchdowns in 28 games. But staying on the field has become a challenge, between various injuries and one league suspension. Rice's off-field baggage and recovery from knee surgery should be factored into his draft price.

Negative signalRole

Rice's off-field issues and injuries create floor concerns despite 64.2 YPG upside.

Rice can't stay out of off-field trouble, contributing to the Chiefs' receiving corps issues. Scott Pianowski notes Rice carries undeniable upside with 64.2 yards per game average, 74.6% catch rate, and 14 touchdowns in 28 games since turning pro, but staying on the field has become a challenge due to various injuries and one league suspension. His off-field baggage and recovery from knee surgery should be factored into draft price; the Kansas City offense has not been high-powered for a couple of years, making his shaky floor concerning despite second or third round upside appeal.
