No doubt about it. Cowboys trying to do same thing with Dak right now, but I think Pat's ceiling is a hell of a lot higher than Dak's. Wilson's ceiling was a lot higher than Dak too. We've seen the Seahawks decline as soon as they had to start paying Wilson and some of the big time defensive guys they drafted around the same time.

Pat has learned a lot this year thanks to Andy, Alex, Nagy, and the rest of the Chiefs coaches. He needs to be thrown into the fire against the best defenders in the world and gain more experience on the field.

Years 3-5 you make a serious run at the Super Bowl until the time comes to pay Pat huge money...and presumably big money for other successful draft picks during this time period.
