Hill has been a great receiver for the Chiefs but as teams clamped down on the deep pass routes this season, their offensive scheme changed dramatically. I don't recall too many pure deep connections although there was the occasional broken play throws. A lot of Hills yards came on short passes where he broke loose. That may be the biggest minus in the move.
However, Mahomes and Reid will change the offense to maximize the short passing, move the chain, approach and accommodate more of Kelce and and the second tight end, Schuster in the slot, Hardman who has Tyreek's speed, and any WR they get in the draft or through FA. It will also put more options to use RB's out of the backfield in the passing game. Keep on eye on them drafting Breece Hall.
Hey this is a hit on the Chiefs but the league has adapted to their offense and they need to adjust too. It may not look the same but with Mahomes at QB, they'll figure it out. It's the defense that needs to make a big improvement to get them back to the SB anyway.
