Quick, anyone . . . . . .
Raise your hand on here if you claimed JuJu was an ‘elite’ WR before he arrived here . . . . . . . anyone . . . . . . ? Oh, you in the back there, sir. Yeah, gonna need to see some receipts on that.
If you NOW think JuJu is an elite WR, he is one because Mahomes made him look like one. JuJu is gonna get paid BIGTIME this off season thanks to Mahomes. The same guy that got Albert Wilson paid (for one game), the guy that got 4th option Byron freaking Pringle a decent WR contract, the guy that helped Reek land the largest WR contract in NFL history.
Mahomes is Mahomes. If you have a Mahomes, you take advantage of that fact. One of the ways you do that is by signing one year deals year to year for guys with talent who are looking to get PAID. Rinse, repeat.
What you DON’T do is hand out ridiculous $20-$25 million per year contracts to 2nd tier WR’s who are made to look like 1st tier WR’s by that same QB.
That’s just ****ing stupid.
