He said they laughed and mocked him when he made the pick. After that opening day TD, my son sent me a text with a bunch of exclamation marks. (My son also won a lot of money because he bet Chase for OROY).
I wanted us to take Sewell, but I never hated on Chase. I am a big SEC fan. I had watched him play a lot on college. I knew he was a badass.
But the drops in pre-season were a legitimate concern. I knew he didn't have a problem in college with drops, but that did not change the fact that he dropped way too many in preseason.
So while the plays against the Chiefs and Ravens were more spectacular, that TD against the Vikings lifted a big weight off my concerns about Chase. It felt really, really good.
