Just play the drafted young guy. Keep drafting wrs in the 2nd 3rd round and go from there.
If some of these teams wanna let some of these 2nd level wrs go and get overpaid, let them. The league is littered with the Kenny galladays and such.
If you can get a good deal or if you hit on a few good cheap defensive players in the draft, sure go spend on some offense
But you have the qb and head coach we have. They’re gonna have to develop some sky Moore’s and toneys into legit wrs because of the money and the need to build up a defense as we’ve seen historically

That’s where I really disagree. You want to put all our money and resources into making mahomes less pivotal. I want the ball in his hands.
I will probably never be comfortable relying on our defense to make a final stop. I don’t want to trust our defense to hold the other team to 20 in a playoff game because our offense barely puts up 21. That doesn’t mean you make your defense bad. One WR isn’t going to tilt it that badly. But we certainly have a good enough gm and (hopefully) a dc who can make the defense plenty good enough to support an explosive offense. We should do everything we can to give mahomes the chance to dominate in these situations. As of now we are asking him to be Superman. And if we’re being real we’re seeing some of th3 kryptonite show in these situations and I don’t blame mahomes for that.. We had opportunities to close vs buffalo and cincy and didn’t. We couldn’t do anything in the second half of Seattle or Denver or LAR.
Meanwhile our offensive strategy is relying HEAVILY on asking mahomes to do little work and ask his weapons to do the work. Runs, quick hitches, check downs, screens. Again I am fine with using these more but on third down it makes me deeply uncomfortable that lately we are asking these guys to make plays instead of putting it in mahomes hands.
