Our offense stalled bc Demarcus Robinson sucks and Byron Pringle isn’t much better. They aren’t very talented and could be covered with one player. You get a legit first rd WR in here with talent and it changes everything.
We don’t even need that WR to be an all pro. We have 2 HOF’s ahead of him anyway. You also have Hardman who I guarantee will be at his best bc, as Terez Paylor would say…”the contract season is undefeated”. He’s gonna be his best version bc he’s trying to get paid.
There’s a lot of talent and speed at WR this year. I’m extremely confident we’re taking one early in the draft. Probably first rd

Our offense didn't stall because WRs weren't open. It stalled because Patrick flat-out didn't ****ing see them. Blaming the WRs is neglecting to see the truth.
Do the Chiefs need to add to the room? Of course, there are 3 free agents from the roster that finished the season and Hardman is one next year. Do they need to improve the quality of talent? Sure, they should always do that and it's clear that Robinson is maxed out and not quite good enough and Pringle developed too late to probably be worth any lengthy investment going forward.
All that said, I haven't expected Veach to go out and shop the top shelf at WR in FA and I also don't expect him to burn a round 1 pick on it. The Chiefs can get better than they have had for a middling investment. I think he'll retain much of his ammunition for addressing the D-Line, which was his clear point of emphasis.
