It's not a risk I wanted to take, but being here now, I see the thinking.

I firmly disagree because it's another year of having inadequate protection for Mahomes. It's just another area we couldn't address with a premium player and it forces their hand in FA.
Missing on pillar positions sets the franchise back, especially as the core ages.
If we didn't miss on FAU, would we have had to spend 7m to retain Omenihu? And if not Omenihu, do we need to spend a high 3rd on Gillotte instead of another area like getting a premium RB or adding another S, etc?
Missing, especially on high picks, absolutely matters.
