And there you go. Thank you for making my point for me. That we deprioritize needs on offense. Probably because we just expect Reid and mahomes to carry us.
Our interior OL was a disaster for several years. But we were desperate to fix our defense so we let mahomes get rolled for several years. We knew Wylie was shit for 2 years. But we had to fix our Defense. The minute Watkins became unreliable WR became a need - we threw one damn high-ish pick in FIVE YEARS for a position where you can use 3 or 4 guys and even if you think we tried, every single option failed. As in, could barely get a one year contract with another team.
the fact that you don’t think it was a need even back then just means you don’t think these positions are very important. Hence the point about being complacent. We are ok with it because mahomes can elevate the talent.
