4. Skyy Moore - Naughty List

Most of what was said about Valdes-Scantling holds true for Moore as well, though the Chiefs have Moore on a relatively low-cost rookie deal for a couple more seasons.

They did, however, invest a second-round pick into Moore. Unlike with Rice, we've yet to see a tangible positive come from that investment.

He'll miss the remainder of the regular season after being placed on Injured Reserve. That means he'll end 2023 with 21 catches for 244 yards and one TD. Mahomes posted a 50.8 passer rating when targeting him.

If Moore couldn't contribute in regular season games, I don't see any reason for the Chiefs to trust him in a big moment in the playoffs after missing over a month.

This is among the more disappointing seasons in recent memory. I'm hopeful Moore can turn things around next year, but fans should hold virtually no expectations.

As for our last player on the nice list? Yeah, fans should have massive expectations moving forward.
