Through 11 games the team still does not have a TD reception by a WR. A team looking for a championship can't win consistently without any WR help on offense.

With an all pro RB and a smart QB, the chiefs need a true #1 WR to help keep teams from stacking the box. They become very difficult to defend if defenses have to respect the play action.

Josh Coleman

The Chiefs have not had a true #1 receiver in a long time

Evan Covello

The statistic of the lack of WR touchdowns doesn't bother me. However, this team simply needs more play makers and constant contributors to this offense.

Ethan Schupak

The Chiefs have the least talented WR core in the league by far. To not have any TDs from WRs at this point in the season is laughable. They need a big playmaker at the WR position.

Benjamin Varner

Because the were dumb not to draft 2 WRs in last year's deep draft. They could have stayed at their pick and had Kelvin Benjamin or Jordan Matthews in the First and John Brown in the Third. There is not that much depth this year.

Jake Burstyn

duh

Chase Riley

I cannot believe this would have the Chiefs taking a D-Linemen and not a WR?! Seriously!? They lost Derrick Johnson and Mike DeVito on their front seven, that's why their run defense has lacked.

Carl A Brodin

They need a play making WR and possibly a TE

CB

Ron Parker showed his lack of ability to play CB on the final drive of the game. Parker needs to move back to safety and the Chiefs need a solid replacement.

After a dominating performance over Nebraska this past weekend Melvin Gordon looks to be making a case for the Heisman Trophy as well as a top pick in the 2015 NFL Draft.

why seehawk no drat melvis gorden. chris mort on son say marchel no gonna be on seehawk next year. melvis next grate runny guy

Matt Thrasher

Not just because of Gurley's injury. He's playing lights out and just shattered the NCCA rushing yards record. He's thought of as the next Jamaal Charles. I think he's the best RB in college football.

Nicholas Worthem

Todd Gurley is a world class talent but like Lattimore, consistent injuries limit his upside and are not worth a first round pick at this point.

Ken Malicek Jr

Gurleys injury is an unknown. Gordins a very good RB. though this position may not be a selection in the first round. as the postion is not as valued as others

39%

No

Gurley's injury should not force teams looking for a RB to reach when there should be some good talent in the 2nd round.

He's a big ten running back...no big ten running back has ever amounted to much in the nfl....

Matt Wemer

Melvin Gordon has had a stellar year, but Gurley was an exception to the new unwritten rule that drafting a RB in the first round is a mistake. Out of the top 10 rushers this year, only one of them (Marshawn Lynch) was drafted in the first round. And even then he is not on the team that drafted him. There are too many instances where college success does not translate to NFL success for RBs, on top of the fact that RBs are not nearly as important on successful teams.

William Van Dahm

Teams aren't going to reach for a rb with so many teams finding luck with late round picks or undrafted running backs

Benjamin Varner

Isn't the best RB, and positional value is still low.

Cody Jacobson

i just don't believe teams in the top 15 value running backs as much as they should

derek tweedy

Although an injury could force a team to reach, the one position teams no longer reach for is running back. There are only a few teams in the NFL that even rely on 1 running back anymore. With back by committee as the main system, running backs aren't valued high enough for this to move Gordon up.

David Bjorlin

The injury to Gurley doesn't make Gordon more attractive. Gurley was/is projected high because he's so talented, not because there's a preexisting market for RBs high in the first round (because there isn't). The interesting question is what happens if Gurley pulls an Adrian Peterson and is running by April.

He is the superior player and the superior person. The steelers should look at Winston ... that way they can groom the next rapist behind their current rapist.

Lance Richie

Winston is a headcase. No way he will have a better career.

Eddie Tacito MacNish

Accurate, elusive, and is patient in the pocket. He's not afraid to move between his progressions, and in the end, he sure can run.

Visitor

Footwork, footwork, footwork. You cannot be accurate without footwork. You cannot be successful without footwork. Sorry Blake Bortles, but footwork is better than being 6'5" and 235 pounds with a cannon with no aim. Mariota will be a Pro Bowl caliber player in his very first season. That's why I voted for him, he's a fluffier version of Andrew Luck.

Benjamin Varner

Mariota has better mechanics and probably has a better work ethic as opposed to the guy that looks like he's whipping a 100 MPH fastball and runs like he's had too many crab legs. Seriously, who yells "F her right in the .."

Justin Wall

Despite all of Winston's talent, I cannot see him staying out of trouble and becoming a successful leader in today's NFL.

How many qbs that depend on their legs last in the NFL.... none Kapernick, Newton and Wilson are being exposed this year without an elite defense Winston is an ANdrew Luck type of talent, that can carry a team... hes doing it right now in college... Mariota loses to mediocre teams like arizona in his own house.... also mariota is injury prone

Visitor

Bruh, Arizona is going to win the Pac 12. Thats not mediocre.

Keith Beaumont

I just don't think that Mariota's game will translate to the NFL. For him to be successful, he will have to be drafted by a team that's a perfect fit. Oregon's playbook is the smallest in college football, Mariota's learning curve will therefore be extensive. Winston will probably suck too though, so I'm betting they both bust.

jubben

It's tough as obviously both are talented players. I think Mariota is more careful with the ball, but he reminds me too much of Manziel on how quickly he abandons the throw for the scramble. Winston has great arm strength and uses his mobility mostly to keep plays alive and always keeps his eyes down field. Also like Manziel, I think he could be one of the greats in the NFL if he can keep his nose clean.
