0:00Upside's there. Because no one else is
0:02all that appealing. End of city. Trey
0:04Sermon picked up a shin injury, but uh
0:07seems like
0:08it's minor. Seems like he's going to be
0:10fine. Might give us a buying
0:12opportunity. First of all, at pick 200,
0:14that's not someone you need to start for
0:15you in week one. So, even if this shin
0:16injury kind of pushed for further, it's
0:18not a big worry. The idea is that like
0:19they're comping this kid to Diggs. He's
0:22underlying their best man-beater. You've
0:24got a team where Richie James is
0:26recovering very slowly from this knee
0:28injury. Does not look good in camp.
0:29Cannot beat man even when fully healthy.
0:32You've got Worthy who's been a bust
0:33every single year of his career. Can't
0:35stay healthy either. He's picking up
0:36like another shoulder injury. Kelce's
0:38like 50 years old. If he's out there
0:41when they are playing the starters in
0:43the preseason, and he is getting even an
0:45okay snap share in week one, he's going
0:48to be one of the top waiver wire adds.
0:50The excitement will clearly be there.
0:51Kansas City is not a team that
0:53historically brings rookies along super
0:55fast and right away. So,
0:56with what beat reporters are saying that
0:59it really looks like they already have a
1:01role for him on offense,
1:03the upside's there. Because no one else
1:06is all that appealing. Worthy in theory
1:08is appealing. And Rice was appealing
1:10because he was being targeted a million
1:11times. I don't think that's going to
1:12happen again this year.
1:13And Kelce has been, but again, he's like
1:1550. It's exciting. Now, do you need to
1:17go there and read up on him? Probably
1:18not. But definitely a name to keep in
1:20mind.
