As far as the pressure rate stats....I feel like there has to be some sort of context to that. From the games that I watched mobile qbs were able to evade the pressure (The one game i can point to our pass rush actually being a factor is the Cowboys game)......a ton of rookie CBs won't fix that

That may have been his plan at the time. At least 5 teams a year set out to find the next Patrick Mahomes. Then they dont. The NFL is a living breathing thing. You have to play the cards your dealt. And this was a weird ass offseason for us. The Tyreek thing ****ed up free agency. Likely Veach thought they had a deal in place, that would free up enough cash for a vet pass rusher or at least a few jags. Then draft the position. The Reek trade happened too late to use any of that money on tier one FA's. This may be looked upon as a transition year in the future.
