Ranking Most Underrated WRs in NFL Ahead of 2025 Season | Bleacher Report
No. 4: Xavier Worthy, Kansas City Chiefs
During Day 1 of the 2024 draft, the Kansas City Chiefs pulled off one of the event’s shrewdest maneuvers by trading up to No. 28 to secure speedster Xavier Worthy. By trading with the Buffalo Bills for that draft slot, the back-to-back Super Bowl champions not only added a much-needed burner to their receiver room, but also denied their biggest in-conference threat a chance to land the talented Texas product.
The move began paying dividends quickly during a season in which top wideouts Rashee Rice and Marquise Brown both missed large swathes of time with injury. While Worthy took some time to get adjusted to the professional game, he finished his notable rookie campaign by playing in all 17 games and putting up 638 yards and a team-high six touchdowns on 59 catches.
Worthy’s numbers could have been far more impressive had he seen a larger workload early in the year. The dynamic wideout only saw 75 percent or more of Kansas City’s offensive snaps once between Weeks 1-13 before going on to average an 82.1 snap share in the team’s last four meaningful contests in Weeks 14-17.
Worthy’s production rose with his increase in playing time. During that four-game stretch to close out the year, the blazing-fast receiver caught 26 balls for 231 yards and two scores. Extrapolated across an entire 17-game season, that production would have resulted in 111 receptions for 982 yards and nine touchdowns.
Given that fantastic end-of-season run and subsequent playoff showing—Worthy was one of the Chiefs’ best players during their run to the Super Bowl, catching 19 of his 21 targets for 287 yards and three scores in three postseason contests—it would be surprising if Worthy doesn’t go ballistic during his upcoming sophomore season.
What we learned from NFL offseason workouts: One key observation for every team | The Athletic
Kansas City Chiefs
Andy Reid made a point of it all spring on the practice field: The veteran coach wants the Chiefs’ offense to get back to pushing the ball deep down the field, akin to what Patrick Mahomes did so well early in his career. Back then, they tore up the league.
Kansas City somehow finished 27th in the league in 2024 in passing plays of 20 yards or more, regressing into an underneath offense. But with a deeper receiving room than they’ve had in years — Mahomes mentioned how much of an advantage it is to have Rashee Rice, Xavier Worthy, Hollywood Brown and JuJu Smith-Schuster all back, and all healthy — look for more emphasis on explosion this fall. If so, a 15-2 team from last season could be even better. — Zak Keefer
2013 NFL Redraft: Rebuilding the first round based on PFF grades and data | PFF
1.Kansas City Chiefs: TETravis Kelce,Cincinnati (Round 3, Pick 63)
Original Pick: TEric Fisher,Central Michigan
Across 12 NFL seasons, Kelce has established himself as one of the best tight ends of all time. His career 94.2 PFF receiving grade is the PFF record at the position and trails only Antonio Brown and Julio Jones if wide receivers are included.
Perhaps most impressive is Kelce’s work in the playoffs, where his 90.8 PFF receiving grade ranks behind only Jones among players with at least 35 postseason targets.
Top five NFL draft values of the millennium at WR: Tyreek Hill, Justin Jefferson bring booming returns | NFL.com
3 -Tyreek Hill
Kansas City Chiefs
Drafted: Round 5 (No. 165 overall), 2016.
Hill was dismissed from Oklahoma State in 2014 following his arrest on domestic violence charges and entered the draft in 2016 after a year at West Alabama. The Chiefs took a chance on Hill, and he rewarded them with stunning production as a receiver, returner and runner. He was a major factor in the Chiefs winning their first Super Bowl in 50 years at the end of the 2019 season.
After six mostly brilliant seasons, the Chiefs dealt Hill to Miami, where he put up back-to-back 1,700-yard seasons. While his time in Kansas City was also marked by off-field issues, the trade contributed to the Chiefs landing Trent McDuffie, one of the best corners in the NFL, and helped position them to draft Rashee Rice and others, keeping the franchise close to the top of the league’s food chain since the deal went down.

We’ll see it all and the desire for the NF$ to make even more cash will grow. The best way for the league to do that is go to 18 games. So that talk will continue.
