Rashee Rice is identified as a standard draft selection at the 2-3 turn.NegativeBustAug 10, 2026
Rice is a high-risk second-round pick due to a combination of suspension concerns stemming from off-field behavior, a history of knee injuries, and recent reports of him running at only 75% speed in training camp following a knee cleanup procedure. Furthermore, he is a risky pick due to his previous performance as the WR60 in points per game, low yards per reception, and the potential for the Chiefs to shift toward a run-heavy offense.NegativeInjuryAug 5, 2026

Over the past two seasons he averaged WR5 PPG in 2025, and in the three games he played fully in 2024 he posted 17.3, 18.5, and 29.1 fantasy points. With Mahomes healthy and Rice no longer incarcerated, the upside is there when he takes the field.PositiveValueJun 24, 2026
Rashee Rice represents the opportunity cost of bully tight end strategy; if taken in round 3 instead of McBride, Rice could fill WR1, WR2, WR3, or flex, providing more roster flexibility than a tight end locked into flex.
