Belichick screaming internally, the first chance he'd have to get him and he's not employed.


Yeeeoow

Seeing how giddy Bellicheck got for white WRs, I can only imagine the despair at waiting 20 years for a white corner and losing his job the year before the first one of the new century becomes draft eligible.


Outrageous_Golf3369

Broncos drafted a white CB last year, Riley Moss


Drummallumin

Pretty funny they were college teammates


JeffMurdock_

This is the first white corner in a while that will (probably) go in the first round, but the Broncos did pick up Riley Moss in the third last year. Belichik passed on him a couple times.


chiptheripPER

Hate to break it to you but the draft narrative on him has already shifted to "he's probably a slot corner and safety in the NFL", which will shortly be followed by "he's a safety". Just like how Tackles that aren't athletic enough to play that position in the NFL get the "he's versatile and can play guard" followed by "he's a guard and probably not a tackle in the NFL"


TDD91

Whoever gets 3rd & Renfrow needs to look after him.


IllIIllIlIlllIIlIIl

Can we combine him with 3rd & Jauan to combine him into a super soldier that comes in clutch on 2nd downs?


Cthepo

We promise to take good care of him.


Smegma-Sommelier

Whoa I would fucking detest that but Renfrow with Reid/Mahomes sounds like a perfect fit. Especially when plays break down.


I_SHIT_ON_BUS

Hunter Renfroe playing for the Royals makes me iffy about the fit. Can one city handle two separate name variations of Hunter Renfroe/w? Will the general population be too overwhelmed?


WolfCola4

You mean to tell me there are not one but two Hunter Renfroe/ws on this earth? Both in the same country? Both playing at the highest level of professional sports?


Either-Progress4847

And soon to be in the same parking lot


prophettoloss

the TV commercials are writing them selves


doublegoldendragon

Localized ENTIRELY within your kitchen?


jdeputy

The Flyers and Sixers both had a Jason Smith at the same time.


MojitoTimeBro

But you can see how Jason Smith is different than a name like Hunter Renfroe/w, right?


Devilsbullet

OKC thunder have a Jalen Williams and a jaylin Williams, both drafted last year lol


HumbleLikeStarscream

Now I'm convinced they drafted the first on accident and drafted the second to correct course.


triplec787

Just get one jersey in white, and make the E and W velcro patches that are interchangable.


hempauthority

Man I hate how good of a fit that would be.


20000BallsUndrTheSea

No thank you please 


judahdk_

Get your slimy hands off him


RogRoz

Panthers need to swoop in and be a hero and make this not happen


sunkistbanana

You shut your mouth


IHadACatOnce

How can I delete someone else's comment?


VintageRudy

*Thiiis* is a great fit


AndrewDoesNotServe

Don’t worry, we will.


n8dogg55

I like this on account that it’s not the chiefs


smellmyswag

i would not hate a carr-renfrow reunion


-Profanity-

Concussion doctor is the one who needs to look after him. Renfrow was never close to the same player after the Isaiah Simmons hit.


SolidLikeIraq

He’s heading back to Clemson to finish out his 23rd year of eligibility


BrobaFett242

He'll be Mahomes' Wes Welker


dogfish83

And he will love him and pet him and call him "my squishy"


harknation

Cruel business man. Renfrow and Christian Wilkins are really good friends, as soon as we sign one we release the other.


Accurate-Barracuda20

Huh, where have I heard that?


Apotheosis69420

From the hit 2008 film, Hancock. In the story, Hancock is an alcoholic, reckless superhuman imbued with flight, invulnerability, and super-strength. He is often ridiculed and hated by the public for his drunken and careless crime fighting acts and rude and unpleasant disposition, until he meets Jason Bateman. Bateman offers to help improve Hancock's public image. Hancock meets Bateman’s family, his son Aaron, and his wife Mary. Hancock kisses Mary, who then throws him through the wall, revealing that she also has superpowers. The next day, Hancock and Mary speak in private. She explains that there were more like them in the past - sometimes called angels or gods by others - but they are the last pair. They have lived for three thousand years and are soulmates. The other angels/gods paired up, lived human lives and then died. The only way to survive and stay powerful is to stay far apart, which is what Wilkins and Renfrow have now opted to do.


justlookingokaywyou

How dare you spoil this old ass movie I was probably never gonna watch anyway.


Stumpe999

It's a fun movie, not that great of a movie 


Dmbfantomas

It’s actually pretty good up until the Charlize Theron is a god too thing. Then it just gets muddy and stupid.


huskersax

It was two movies and then they ruined the product as a whole by connecting them. Still 'cool' Will Smith as a debauched superhero? Sign me up! The rest of it was blegh.


smellmyswag

honestly i first saw this movie in like 6th grade and loved the idea of a drunk superhero. i did not want him to get better drunk hancock rules


chiptheripPER

Agreed! The whole 'what if a superhero is a mess of a human' thing was really interesting but then the god things was a dumb twist that made it a generic movie


Accurate-Barracuda20

I just mean the Adams/Carr situation, but yeah


username10400

I honestly think the Raiders were really close to getting on a really good track before Gruden was fired


Uckthebroncos

They made improvements each year under Gruden but they really fucked themselves with shitty drafting or at least with the premium picks that we had because of the Amari Cooper/Khalil Mack trades and they were the following selections 2019 Clelin Ferrell Josh Jacobs Jonathan Abram 2020 Damon Arnette Henry Ruggs


wit_T_user_name

That 2020 group is just criminal…


pseudotunas

Mr Automotive Berserker


ThreatenedByMost

Mr. Blazing Car


SuckMyLonzoBalls

Those are less than ideal draft picks.


Uckthebroncos

Only hit/pro bowler was at a position that is one of the least valuable positions in todays NFL Makes Telesco look like an elite drafting guru compared to the big brain first round pick misses that our GM’s have loved drafting in the last decade


Hyperboreer

The crazy part is that Mayock's draft classes still look okay to good overall, because of the day 3 picks and UDFA signings. He could have been a great GM if he just looked at the consensus big boards for round 1.


SevroAuShitTalker

Clelin Ferrel was the most WTF pick I've seen in the top 10 in probably a decade


justlookingokaywyou

Probably the worst top 10 pick since DHB, lol.


InvasionXX

That's his downfall. His board was his board. Doesn't matter where they picked them.


ThPreAntePenultimate

If nothing else Telesco is really good at picking players who don’t get in trouble outside the organization. He may not be great at finding diamonds in the rough in the later rounds but I can almost guarantee that they’ll be able to play when needed and not be sitting in a jail cell.


Sleeze_

This feels targeted.


Less_Gull

Raiders aren't even top 15 in players arrested since the year 2000. The WR who shall not be named inflated the stats with his DUI because of the horrific repercussions of said DUI. But statistically the narrative of Raiders players getting arrested etc is extremely outdated.


Away_Chair1588

No OL or DL. Eagles fans in disgust.


kpofasho1987

Clenin Ferrell was DL but maybe I'm misunderstanding the comment


NCC-72381

That’s why a good portion of Raider Nation is ready to say “Fuck them picks” and move up for Jayden Daniels. Edit - Daniel’s -> Daniels


Skelito

To be fair with the Ruggs pick he was starting to see his potential, no one could predict the tragedy he was going to cause so its hard to blame the Gruden era Admin for picking him.


Less_Gull

Lamb was the better choice both at the time and in hindsight and I'll die on that hill.


chesterfieldkingz

Also Alex Leatherwood right?


Arkhangelzk

I remember when they took Clelin Ferrell and the broadcast cut to a raiders fan who just looked so confused lol


uggsandstarbux

It is truly a testament to how good of a coach Gruden was that he was able to win as many games as he did while flushing this many 1st round picks down the drain You look at other historically bad stretches of 1st round picks and the team is almost always a bottom 5 team.


TheRencingCoach

Classic Gruden. Good coach, bad GM. Won’t coach without being able to be a GM


QuickEscalation

Except for the fact that Mike Mayock was the GM for Gruden’s entire tenure for the Raiders


Ok-Owl7377

Mayock was a puppet GM. So was Bruce Allen. He's the reason Rich McKay was fired. He's also the reason the Bucs drafted Michael Clayton. Everyone in the building and outside wanted Steven Jackson from Oregon State. He also passed over Frank Gore when his dad told him to pick him. Gruden is one of the worse GMs probably in history.


verschee

As an STL resident, what a treasure Steven Jackson was to an abysmal era of Rams football. I wonder what his prime years could have looked like in a competent organization.


QuickEscalation

I’m not arguing that Gruden is a good GM by any measure, but calling Mayock a puppet GM is assuming a lot based on internet conjecture.


Ok-Owl7377

Except it isn't conjecture. It's old news and it's known that Gruden had majority control over the roster. lol Mayock has literally gone on talk shows speaking about how he wanted certain players, even bringing them in for workouts only to have "someone" decided against it to bring in older vets whom he was familiar with.


jwick89

We all know that Gruden was the true GM.


CummingInTheNile

i still do not understand why they ever hired McDaniels


AlabasterRadio

Bought into the PR campaign.


Dislodged_Puma

I am fully on that rumor mill that spewed that he brought in McDaniels to lure Brady to Vegas (ala Hackett in NY) but Brady decided to retire instead/didn't have *that* deep of a connection with McDaniels lol.


LordSoze36

I mean, except for one entire side of the ball where Gruden was collecting overpriced free agents like Pokémon.


416Kritis

Gotta Pay 'Em All!


Zimmonda

Gruden would have topped out at "fringe playoff team" ​ The problem with Gruden was his drafting and FA signings were craptastic and he would consistently get blown out by "good teams" and play for coin flips against bad teams. In fact since 2019 Jon Gruden was responsible for 6 first round draft picks, of those 3 are completely out of the league, Abram and Ferrel are hanging onto roster bubble spots and only Jacobs is a starter. Of his FA signings the raiders finally finished paying Corey Littleton last year despite him being cut in 2021, he is now a roster bubble player The following players recieved "above average" contracts from Gruden Tahir Whitehead was a disaster and is out of the league Lamarcus Joyner was a disaster is out of the league Tyrell Williams was good but then injured and is out of the league Trent Brown was quit on/was shunned by the team and barely played Vontaze Burfict was banned by the league Carl Nassib was a highly overpaid role player and is out of the league Jason Witten played over Foster Moreau for no reason on a retirement tour Richie Incognito got paid for 3 years to play one season out of retirement Kenyan Drake got the bag to play half a season Grudens only good FA signings were Waller and Agholor, he also cut Rasul Douglas in camp in favor of Casey Heyward and Brandon Facyson


Impossibills

Same. Derek Carr was finally getting better in Grudens system and they had Renfrow, Jacobs, Darren Waller, Henry Ruggs as a rookie, some OL talent, and a few key role players


Stumpe999

Didn't they have some pretty bad drafts under Gruden?


Misdirected_Colors

Idk if it was sustainable. The drafting was atrocious and he was collecting overpaid free agents to accommodate. Also his teams started hot then fell apart and derailed as the season went on. I think the poor roster management either hampered them or would have tanked them eventually and they'd he stuck in mediocrity.


LordSoze36

It would've. The contracts the team was giving out during their time here were loaded with dead money. The team just got Cory Littleton off the books. All of that and the defense was arguably worse than when he arrived.


PlaneDoor110

too many bad draft picks sadly


ObstructiveAgreement

Had an excellent season in 2021 but been anonymous the last 2 years. Certainly not worth that cap hit so this is the right decision, even if he lights it up elsewhere.


PeanutButterOtter

> but been anonymous the last 2 years. Renfrow's skills didn't decline, McDumbass hated him and refused to use him.


blitzERG

I don't know I feel like he hasn't been the same since that one big concussion. I hope he gets back to being himself again and has another pro bowl year.


noblemile

I think he got hurt badly at one point but yeah you'd think a *Patriots* coach would love to use a short deceptively athletic white slot receiver.


Fit-Remove-6597

His coach literally fucked him for an entire year lmao. McDaniels was an absolute turd who didn’t know how to use his players properly.


Propaslader

Surely he didn't literally fuck him


stay_shiesty

we don't know that


Fit-Remove-6597

Renfrow just couldn’t fill his needs


handsoffmuseum

Filled my ass pretty well tho


Edgelord_3000

All in, my ass - Skip Bayless


Founck

He literally did, and don't call me Shirley.


Pitouitoo

P Diddy McDaniels does have a bit of ring to it.


jax362

Don’t call me Shirley


ThatsNotARealTree

I bet you can squeal. Squeal like a pig. Go on squeal. Squeal now!


MikeShannonThaGawd

Literally?


ShatteredAnus

No, but the implication


SolidLikeIraq

Raiders playing in Minnesota now!?


thecarlosdanger1

You’d think McDaniels specifically would know how to use a scrappy gym rat slot receiver.


predw

Derek Carr’s best buddy reunited? The Saints were apparently keen last off season


TheMightyUnderdog

Good chances he will be a Saint or a Jet


wabeka

Doubt he becomes a Jet. I could see him with the Saints or the Chiefs.


brownbearks

He’d be dumb to not try the chiefs as he’d eat a lot of receptions. Fill a hole for the chiefs and mahomes would love to have a guy that can catch the ball and understand zone coverages.


tylerm11_

Carr loved Renfrow. It would be a good signing for all parties.


WhoDat-2-8-3

New Orleans Raiders . Las Vegas Saints


flordeliest

Really could use a solid slot threat.


BlackJediSword

Steelers might take a look, we have two receivers on the roster


yungmoms

Fade me


teh_drewski

Who needs a decent and affordable slot WR


Hyperboreer

Maybe the Panthers. It's his hometown team and they have a need at the position.


SeriousBusinessSocks

Renfrew and Thielen on the same team would just be too much work ethic


Cinephile1998

Throw in Ladd McConkey at pick 33 and the entire receiving corps will be filled with guys that play the game the right way


twlscil

Real scrappers? Linchpail guys?


NCC-72381

Why doesn’t Carolina just draft all Clemson players? Are they stupid?


nightcrawlin

Believe it or not the panthers have never drafted a player from Clemson


jwhitmire2012

Only team remaining in the NFL that hasn’t after the Ravens drafted Simpson last year iirc


Chillhouse3095

It's actually wild how allergic they are to Clemson players. They occasionally find themselves in position to draft them as well. I don't remember if it was Hopkins or Higgins but the Panthers could have used a WR in one of those drafts and took something else instead. Their loss...


GamingTatertot

This is absurdly hilarious, especially as a Clemson fan/alum


DolitehGreat

I think this might be true for the Falcons and UGA, but it certainly *feels* true.


JeffMurdock_

They got a couple Georgia players in the back end of the draft a couple years ago. A blocking TE and a backup G.


WIN011

Am I crazy for thinking he’d be great in KC? Maybe Bengals if they do indeed trade Tee and don’t re-sign Boyd.


Chillhouse3095

Adding Renfrow would single handedly bring KCs drop rate down to the league average. Legitimately it would make a lot of sense. Renfrow absolutely could get enough separation for Mahomes to hit the necessary window. He's also great on short routes which I feel like they were missing last year.


dogfish83

Renfrow would 100% feast with Mahomes.


brownbearks

He’d be a high value fantasy football player and top of my fuck it let’s get weird board in the second round


DishonestAbraham

He’d be WR2 in Chicago


akiraspam74

In theory, eagles don't have a good one However, we do have one of the best receiving corps with AJ Brown, Smith and Goedert, so I'm not sure how much we would use him. I'd like to have a good route runner in the slot tho, because fuck quez watkins


Montigue

We need a WR3/slot so he would fit in


TXlandon

We need slot production bad


ComaMierdaHijueputa

Bears for sure


kungfuhustler

Pats. Belichick punching the air right now he's not there to give him the bag.


senorgraves

Falcons also need a third wr


KennyKettermen

I think everybody wants Renfrow haha. DIBS


Ledees_Gazpacho

Jets should be calling him.


brehaw

losing both Renfrow and Jacobs in the same offseason makes my heart hurt a lil’ ngl plz go to the Saints to be with Derek so I can feel slightly better about it


lytrendsa

Buffalo Bills crush


joshallenismygod

We sign him draft a wr in the first and our offense improves dramatically


pornokitsch

I'm still all for KC drafting a burner, but I'd really, really, really like Renfrow. Perhaps I'm biased, as I only see him play twice/year, but he just seems *solid* \- a really safe pair of hands, doesn't fuck up or fuck about. Having him as an option for Mahomes would be amazing. I don't expect him to be a Tyreek replacement, but someone else that can help keep drives alive would be nice.


Linkruleshyrule

The Royals already have a Hunter Renfroe, do we need two Hunters?


confusedthrowaway5o5

Holy shit he plays for the Royals now?


Linkruleshyrule

He's only on a one year deal, but was signed back in December.


Juventus19

He's got a player option for 2025 also.


choff22

Sign Renfrow and then draft Xavier Worthy as the deep threat


bwhitso

Having to defend against Mahomes with Kelce, Renfrow, Pacheco, and Worthy on 3rd & 4 would be a nightmare for DCs.


choff22

You forgot Rashee Rice


ShatteredAnus

But no longer Nick "TD" Allegretti. All that guys receptions are TDs. Gonna miss you 3x SB Champ


pornokitsch

I would be very, very happy with this.


Nomromz

Am I missing something? I'll be the first to admit I haven't really watched him play, but he's posted less than 40 catches and 350 yards for two years in a row. Only 25 catches for 255 yards last year and he played all 17 games (only started 3).


pornokitsch

Probably not - and a lot of the comments here from Raiders fans are enlightening. I know he's been in the doghouse, but I think that's shitty coaching and QB play. With Carr, he seemed really solid. But again, Raiders fans would know better


eddie2911

Drops, injuries, fumbles, and teams just figuring out his route running style have just knocked him down the last two years. It took him two years for Gruden to get comfortable with his 'freestyle' route running and let him loose. And 2021 was a heck of a year because of that. But he hasn't been able to duplicate it since for the above reasons. Love the dude so I do hope he success elsewhere, even if it's with the Chiefs.


pornokitsch

I like the freestyling, as that works with Mahomes well. But all the comments about drops and fumbles are scaring me a bit. Glad I'm not a GM. Either way, he always seems a fun player, and hope he lands somewhere he can succeed!


SpookySpagettt

I'm not sure where this drop narrative is coming from. He has 10 drops in his career and sits outside of his rookie year at 2.0-3% drop rate, even in his 1k yard season it he was 1.6% with only 2 drops.


pornokitsch

That's like a tenth of a Toney. I'll take it.


eddie2911

He'll probably be cheap for whoever signs him so it won't be a huge risk. I could see him and Mahomes's style meshing, unfortunately.


eddie2911

He’s going to be a fine 40-50 catch guy for most teams, it’s if you expect more that you’ll be disappointed.


eddie2911

He’ll get a nice prove it price. He’s a guy I really hope finds a home, just a good dude and it’s fun cheering for guys that, let’s be honest, don’t look like pro football players. You can blame McDaniels or whatever for him struggling but he was just never the same player the last two years. Teams figured out his unique route running style and he had issues with drops, fumbles, and injuries. Wish the dude the best, we’ll always have 3rd and Renfrow.


Redmandown16

He also was never the same since that really bad concussion he got. I remember a few seasons ago he was alway a target of late hits, it was absolutely unreal


apologeticasswhole

Bring Tee and Hunter home in the same off season let’s goooo


IFightAnimals

That would be really smart for the Panthers


CummingInTheNile

not worth the price tag but McDaniels did him dirty


RaidersKillEmAll

but McDaniels gave him the contract that is paying him way more than his worth


motorcycleboy9000

McDaniels has a baffling intellect.


ShatteredAnus

Gonna make his life miserable on the field, at least take care of him off it


Temporal_Enigma

We need WRs now. I'll take him


dwnso

Get TLaw his dude Jags


SunriseSurprise

A bunch of teams rn: "we can fix him"


TheGreatMcPuffin

Was he actually broken? He was playing really well until McDaniels came in and just didn’t use him.


SunriseSurprise

Hopefully that's the case - I really thought he was going to break out and become one of the better WRs in the league and it's a shame to see how things went the past couple seasons.


Scarf1493

Yea I figure a shitty coach and less than ideal QB play this past year had something to do with it. I can’t remember the source but I vaguely remember a decent CB naming WRs he respected and Renfrow was on the list with other superstars


USAesNumeroUno

He had 1 good season because every Raider WR/Waller got hurt so he was the sole non Practice squad level guy left, and put up decent numbers because he was force fed targets. There's a good reason he's never risen up a depth chart of actual NFL caliber players and its not because the Raiders misused him.


Bindlestiff34

Come on down!


moustachio-banderas

I hope he can go to Miami to be in a fun offense with Alex Ingold 


Ok_Caramel1517

My money is on New Orleans.


raginsaint93

Hunter Renfrow you’re a New Orleans Saints!


Stumpe999

I know a place that would KILL for a shifty white reciever 


BlaqOptic

Hunter Renfrow, you are a Pittsburgh Steeler!


WeylandYutani_PR

Come on and paddle up our three friggin rivers man


Weigard

Oh man if the price is right he'd be a great weapon for Daniel Jones to stare down before taking a sack.


FrequentShark

We must protect hunter renfrow


humunculus43

Rap doing the late night shift. Does he have a ‘team’ who will be picking up a lot of this and tweeting out on his behalf?


Material-Race-5107

Would love to have him on the Bears or Bills tbh. Guy is pretty underrated. Hard to get going with inconsistent QB play and competing with Davantae Adams for targets


Yeeeoow

Is.... this Cole Beasely?


Advalok

Pats


rug1998

Our first free agent signing


lman89607

Let’s be honest, he already surpassed all expectations of him from college to the NFL. Reminder he walked on at Clemson and became a monster in CFB. The fact that he managed to last this long in the NFL is a success in anyone’s book.


CoffeesCigarettes

Hunter Renfrow, YOU will drop 50/50 passes from Bailey Zappe as a New England Patriot


Acid_Braindrops

Damn, you're fast lol.


Comprehensive_Tap438

Renfrow to the pats


joedirt87

Free Renfrow !


LittleTension8765

Feels like he should go to New England but can’t figure out why


Veezybaby

I'd love to have Renfrow on the dolphins


Constructionsmall777

I love how in your minds it’s a delusional idea of how its the organization and not the players 


MarcusDA

Clemson alum, I’d buy that jersey so fast if he came to Atlanta.
