Former Texas wide receiver Xavier Worthy turned heads in March when he broke the scouting combine's 40-yard dash record with a time of 4.21 seconds. One team, in particular, saw a perfect fit.

The Kansas City Chiefs originally held the 32nd pick in this year's draft, but they traded up with the Buffalo Bills to acquire Worthy at No. 28. They paired him with MVP quarterback Patrick Mahomes, who has seen his receiving corps go from featuring one of the league's best and most expensive receivers in Tyreek Hill to one who was significantly cheaper.
