With Mahomes healthy and Rice no longer incarcerated, the upside is there when he takes the field.PositiveValueJun 24, 2026
Rashee Rice represents the opportunity cost of bully tight end strategy; if taken in round 3 instead of McBride, Rice could fill WR1, WR2, WR3, or flex, providing more roster flexibility than a tight end locked into flex.
