WR Rashee Rice, KC (1 Viewer)

Rice's value went up this morning after last night's game. The Worthy injury was unfortunate and I don't see this offense ascending with their main weapons being an old Kelce, Hollywood and Smith-Schuster.
So you're thinking Worthy is out 7 weeks?
Probably not. But it does show how the KC offense prefers to operate. Maybe the short intermediate stuff was because they lost Worthy? Or maybe it’s just a continuation of what we’ve seen from them the last 2-3 years.

The latter would greatly benefit Rice.
 
How long is Jalen Royal expected to be out with his knee. He suddenly looks like a contributor
No clear update on Royals. Reid was vague, something something like his progress, but he isn’t even practicing yet.

And he’s a rookie, which is of lesser concern than the knee, but he’s still likely to be behind Brown, Kelce, & others in the target order.

I wouldn’t put much stock into Royals contributing before Worthy & later Rice comes back. Possible, but unlikely IMO. I have 2 shares so I’d love to be wrong.
 
How did he look in preseason? Did he look fully recovered?
Rice fully participated in training camp and played in two preseason games, catching two passes for 13 yards and a touchdown in 20 snaps.
so pretty limited usage here is the TD https://www.chiefs.com/news/chiefs-starters-impress-as-kansas-city-closes-out-the-preseason.

what the clip "shows"
creates separation and then blocks out defender with body.

SOS is also good 6th easiest. Also all my talking heads on podcast say he will be a WR1 must start asset.

I'm curious if any have successfully traded for him?

I need my real WR1!

Just Traded JCM and Q. Johnston for Rice and Shakir. Shakir was for fill in while I wait for Rice and Aiyuk to start playing.

Great trade to get Rice

Dyno or redraft?
 
3 more weeks fellas....and then the Rashee Rice experience takes full effect.

Easy middle round smash that's going to pay dividends.
 
I think drafting him this year jinxed every receiver on my roster.

Ladd - yup
BTJ - hell yes
Just traded for Zay this week - BOOM
Just traded for Jakobi this week - #sadtrombone

WR has been a minefield. Worst start for WRs in recent memory.

You're not kidding, I've never seen it so bad. Three weeks for Rice to play seems like an eternity but I'm pumped to have traded for him in week 2.
 
14 team redraft. 2 managers used auto draft with one getting Rice end of round 7. They dropped him after checking their lineup. I was the only one to put in a claim for him!

Currently Nacua WR#1 w/Meyers, Jeudy, and now Addison available. Aiyuk drafted round 12 if he takes off late season.

I’m told that even before Tyreek Hill’s leg injury, he was never considered a real trade target in Kansas City.

The Chiefs have a No. 1 receiver that they believe in: Rashee Rice.

And those in the building believe he can make an immediate difference: nytimes.com/athletic/66884…
100% agreed. I think Rice is somehow still being underrated this close to his return. Especially given injuries to the position and to other team's QBs, Rice could be a top-5 WR from week 7 onward, and will at the very least be top-12.
 
I'm tempering my expectations. Rice has not played much football in quite awhile. Hopefully after a few weeks he gets back to the form he was in at the start of last season but I am penciling him in as a WR2 with upside.

Only (and it's a big one) fear is rust leading to re-injury. Otherwise, I can see him being top a top 10 WR once's he's acclimated fully.
Its important to note, Rice isn't exactly coming in cold from injury/suspension. He was a full participant in camp and the preseason. I think WR10 is a fair over/under.

The suspension probably benefited him from a health standpoint. Assuming he didn’t spend his time racing around on the freeway. I am now a dynasty holder, hoping he supplants Ladd’s unforeseen demise.

Yeah, I mean look how well Worthy hit the ground running in his 1st game back. chiefs have been starving for reliable targets to players with some YAC ability. They basically had a room full of possession guys for 3 weeks.

I expect a high powered offense week 6 with Worthy & Rice on the field.

I just hope he takes an uber to the stadium. :oldunsure:
 
Rice will be ready to go. He needs to play well for a lucrative extension after next year and has to pay off his debt. He should be very hungry

Week 7 and the real winner is Pat.
 
Really gonna need him to hit the ground running. Thought my work league team would be good enough to make it through, so I drafted and stashed him. Unfortunately, my first 2 WR's are huge busts to this point and the 3rd aint scoring TD's.

Hoping for the best.

He'll be speeding by defensive backs before you know it,

… I’m fine with that, as long as he runs away before he’s caught.

🙂
 
So excited to finally use him, I didn't even get anyone bothering me to trade for him, Rashee Rice should be a WR1 ROS, but bearish me thinking Xavier Worthy eating into Rice's area of the field is kinda my feeling.

Can I see a Bull case for him?

Shocked no one tried to steal him is all.
 
Guarded optimism here.

I expect 50 percent snaps next week

Then a bye

Then maybe we get him up to speed.

The best Rice move may be trading him this week, I have a Barkley owner fishing for him right now. I remember Josh Gordon coming back and really stinking after the long layoff

You mean trading for him or trading him away?
 
Having waited 7 weeks to put him in my lineup, against Vegas no less, it would have to be a pretty compelling offer to trade him away without using him :ROFLMAO:
Woke up to an inbox full of offers for him. All of them lowballs. Every offer was in one of my dynasty leagues. One a start up, the other where I dealt for him in May.

apparently they believe I traded for him in May, to then waited 6 weeks, just to give him away for less than I paid. Because that makes sense.

One was for a single 2026 (random but probably late) 1st. In a 16-team league. Yeah, good luck with that.
