This is a ROBBERY for the Chiefs...

Chiefs are 5-1 and they are actively working the phones as they desperately need a wide receiver but a wild new report has just dropped surrounding their pursuit of star wide receiver Garrett Wilson that not only has fans very intrigued but has some pretty big implications as we approach the trade deadline. We're going to break down the new report, discuss what it means going forward as well as a ton of other updates on this episode as folks things are getting real surrounding Garrett Wilson and the Chiefs. Let's dive right into it because this didn't come out of nowhere. Now, on Monday, Adam Schefter went in the Pat McAfee show and said this about the Chiefs. Quote, you know, they've been calling around. I don't think it would be a surprise to see them continue to attempt to add a wide receiver before the trade deadline. Then ESPN's Jeremy Fowler said the same thing. Almost word for word, the Chiefs are, quote, calling around at least to see what they could potentially add. Two insiders, the same day, the same message. It's no longer a rumor. It is a team shopping for a wide receiver. And we all know why, right? Tyquan Thornton he's on injured reserve he's gonna miss three to four months Rasheed Rice while progressing is still out with a hamstring injury and we don't know exactly what we're gonna get from him when he's back and most importantly Sunday against the Seattle Seahawks in a huge prime time Sunday night game the wide receivers completely I mean they were underwhelming three points 39 yards six catches and Patrick Mahomes wasn't able to get them the ball at all clock is running on this the trade deadline is now just two weeks away from today it is November 10th So who are they calling about? There's been some rumblings about Brian Thomas Jr. There's been some rumblings about George Pickens, Jerry Judy. However, folks, Garrett Wilson is a name that I think a lot of Chiefs fans are interested in. But also, reports are starting to fly surrounding him. It started with Russell Wilson because on NFL on CBS, he said, I'm going to go get Garrett Wilson if I am the Chiefs. He said he'd be great in the Andy Reid style of offense and the Chiefs haven't had a receiver like him. And yesterday, CBS Sports reported it as a full story. Garrett Wilson's top landing spot, number one on the list, is the Kansas City Chiefs. Tyler Sullivan writes, quote, Kansas makes a ton of sense as a potential destination, and that Wilson would be a long-term option for Mahomes if Travis Kelsey retires. And I'll go further, and I'll say even if he doesn't retire, Garrett Wilson would be an absolute long-term fit for this team, and I think it would actually be a very good fit with the Andy Reid offense pair of Patrick Mahomes. Why would the Jets even entertain a Garrett Wilson trade? It's pretty clear Sunday things got ugly. The Jets lost 28-25 to a Dolphins team that hadn't won a game all year. They're now 2-5, and their best player got three targets, two catches, good for only 26 yards. Cameras caught him yelling in a huddle with Geno Smith and the passing game coordinator, and after the game, he said, quote, We were collaborating. And when he was asked about the fans, he said this, I don't blame them. I'm frustrated. Collaborating? Sure, when your number one receiver says that he's frustrated in public to the media, it's clear that a trade is brewing out of New York. Let's not forget last year. At the deadline, the same front office traded Sauce Gardner to the Colts for two first-round picks months after making him the highest-paid corner in football. Same afternoon, Quinn and Williams to Dallas for a first and a second. So it's clear that no one is untouchable, no matter how untouchable they may seem. There's been some rumblings about whether or not, you know, the Athletics reported that the Jets have no intention of trading him right now unless he pushes for a move. And guess what might be around the corner? Pushing for a move. And also, Jason Lacomfora talked to an executive whose team is in the receiver market, and that exec called Wilson, quote, a player who could be obtained at the deadline. Teams always say no until an offer is good enough. Ask Saskern. Here's why it makes sense for the Chiefs, right? They aren't the only team on the CBS list. Number two is San Francisco. The 49ers are 6-1. They have Deebo Samuel, Mike Evans, both hurt. And there are other teams that need a wide receiver as well. That's a six-and-one team, a Super Bowl caliber, a Super Bowl winning team that's desperate for a wide receiver who's also going to be bidding for Garrett Wilson. There's also the Raiders on the list. So if the Chiefs pass, Garrett Wilson could end up in their own division lined up against them twice a year until 2030. And a talent like Garrett Wilson doesn't really come around that often. And when we think about it, right, like I know a lot of Chiefs fans right now are talking about, OK, who's actually available? Is there any superstar wide receivers? I don't know if I'd call Garrett Wilson a superstar, but he has star potential. he is an extremely good wide receiver so if the chiefs want him it's not like you're going out and getting somebody who is a rental and is not going to be very good you don't know what you're going to get it's like i'm not like a Marvin Harrison Jr. even a Brian Thomas Jr. situation he is a proven talent, a talent that i think is actually a perfect fit i want to have him do one number as to why i should explain why he's such a good perfect fit he has 444 receiving yards this season the chief's current leader is travis kelsey with 343 and the best wide receiver Tyquan Thornton 219 he's on the IR Wilson would instantly instantly propel this offense and he has more yards than anyone on the Chiefs on a very messy New York Jets offense the last time the Chiefs had a wide receiver hit a thousand yards was Tyreek Hill back in 2021 and since 2023 no one's really gotten close not Kelsey not anybody and in those same years guess what Garrett Wilson he's done it three times this isn't a hot seven games let's look at Garrett Wilson's first three years 1100 yards 1000 yards 1100 yards and he did that with Zach Wilson throwing the ball folks Garrett Wilson is a very very good player that being said he's going to cost a ton but you think about what Andy Reid does what does he do he wins with guys who separate I mean ultimately Garrett Wilson is an extremely good route runner and that's his number one goal he's the kind of receiver who's open before the ball is out and you pair that with one of the best quarterbacks in the league again of all time in Patrick Mahomes who throws to guys who are open for a living obviously you're in a very very good spot but Russell Wilson also made one sneaky good point he talked about how the Chiefs finally have a real running back in Kenneth Walker which opens up play action so if defenses can't sit back with two safeties deep anymore that's exactly where a receiver like Garrett Wilson will shine and then there's the long game as well Kelsey's 37 every year there's rumblings about whether or not it's going to be his last year when he walks away Mahomes is going to need a number one target and wilson is signed through 2030 so that's the whole point it's not a rental you're getting a guy in his prime right now it's pretty clear to me but also look at the contract he signed a four-year 130 million dollar extension last year which is pretty steep right but the reason it's so important is that his cap hit this season is only about 10 million next year 23 million then it jumps up to 36 million in 2028 which means the chiefs would be getting a three time 1,000-yard receiver at a $10 million cap hit this year. And with the season already underway, they'd only take what's left of it pro-rated. For the Jets, obviously, trading him is going to be brutal, but they're going to have a little bit of dead money. But they're going to ask for a lot of picks. And let me tell you, it's going to cost the Chiefs a lot. But the Chiefs do have their own first and second in 2027, plus two-thirds. But the one problem is, and we got to talk about it, we can't pretend it's not there, the Chiefs only have about $3.6 million in cash face right now they can't just absorb him money has to go back to new york but brett veach has done this exact same thing before we think back to october of 2024 rishi rice and hollywood brown were both on injured reserve and the chiefs traded for deandre hopkins now very different type of receiver he only required a conditional fifth titans paid 2.5 million of the 8 million left on his salary to make it work and wilson's gonna cost a lot more than a fifth but the blueprint is there get the other team to eat some money and the cap problem goes away the question will be will the Jets do that I sure want to ask you guys do you think the Chiefs are going to be able to go out and get Garrett Wilson but more importantly do you think it would be worth the price it's going to cost first round picks it's going to cost second round picks maybe a player or two but at the end of the day they do need to figure out a solution to this not just for this season but long term as well you cannot waste Patrick Mahomes in his prime I mean the every year that this team doesn't win a Super Bowl is one year that you know is really a big setback and ever since Tyree Kill left you got traded I guess to the Dolphins you haven't had an a thousand yard season receiver that's what you need it's been four years since you had one Garrett Wilson would immediately slide into that guy he's a frustrated star leverage could be made and it seems now a lot more reporters are coming out than ever revealing the chiefs are probably the number one destination for the superstar let me know down below you guys are beast cheers
