Andy's WR's don't make a jump in year two? Well when is the last time he had two high picks in year two with no established veterans in front of them, and with a generational QB not only throwing them the ball, but literally helping teach them the ins and outs of what he wants all spring?
Because the answer is... never. He's never had all of that.
And Veach has been busy, stocking the WR room with high picks, and you know Andy had to sign off on it, and Mahomes is excited, and you know...so am I. And you might oughta be too. This is going to be a lot of fun!

See, I never said they wouldn't make a jump in year 2. I said the jump might not be exponential, or the jump might be smaller than what some hope for. I expect Skyy to improve, I've always said that. I just don't expect 1,000 yards/10 TDs from him in 2023. I don't believe that's fair.
And likewise, in 2023, i don't expect Rice to have a OROY type season either. If we're honest about him, he comes with a ton of potential but also several real weaknesses to his game, i.e., his releases and the fact that he drops a lot of balls for no real reason. Do I think that can be fixed? Absolutely. But I also think they might take more than one camp/preseason to fix.
Basically, I'm not putting all my eggs in one 2023 basket, that's all.
And honestly, I doubt Andy/Veach are either.
