My biggest thing with the Chiefs front office is that Patrick does not need Tyreek, the fastest dude in the league (an absurd standard). He only needs solid dudes who will run routes in the correct spot and catch the damn ball. Tyler Lockett is the kind of guy I would like to have for Patrick. Even guys like Amendola & Welker & Edelman. Brady was fortunate to have dudes who didn't mess up the most basic part of the WR job.
Chiefs front office has whiffed pretty bad in this "fundamentals" regard with the likes of MVS, Skyy Moore, and Kadarius Toney. Rashee Rice seems to be a pretty good draft pick, but time will tell if the kid is able to keep it going next year and beyond. I think it's a pretty big red flag on MVS that the Packers & Rodgers seemed happy to get rid of him back in 2022. Same thing with Giants being so eager to dump Toney when he was a recent 1st round Draft pick. Skyy Moore is just a mega bust, poor evaluation and whatever else with him.

Makes sense. It's almost just a minimum competency thing. You don't want to be like the Packers with Rodgers when they couldn't give him anything other than Adams.
This is a really good draft for WRs. I'm hoping the Ravens grab one down in this 29-32 range where the Ravens/Chiefs will be picking. A guy like Troy Franklin might be available and he would go mid-first many years. Also a great OT year, which I imagine is a need for both teams. Not the worst consolation prize that the loser of this game might be able to snipe the other team at a position they're both coveting.
