The Wide Receivers

Who’s In: Jeremy Maclin, Chris Conley, Tyreek Hill, Jehu Chesson, Demarcus Robinson, Albert Wilson

Who’s Out: De’Anthony Thomas, Gehrig Dieter, Anas Hasic, Seantavius Jones, Marcus Kemp, Alonzo Moore, Tony Stevens

I really looked to see if there was somebody I thought could beat our Albert Wilson for the last wideout spot that would save the Chiefs from picking up his almost $1.8 million contract but I just don’t see it currently. Maybe one of the no name young guys will make a name for himself in camp, but as of now I think Wilson is still the safe bet. He has consistently played over DAT who I don’t have making the cut this season. It will be interesting to see if either Robinson or the rookie Chesson can earn playing time as part of a rotation on game days this season.

Next up, the tight ends.
