Maybe two GOOD WR's are > one great one.

Exactly.

Once your QB starts making real money, it's his job to make B level WR talent outperform their paychecks.

Any swinging dick can throw to HoFers - Alex Smith did it. And yeah, it makes a great QBs job easier. But when he wants to get paid, there are sacrifices that come with that and having that easy job is one of them.

The WR market is making it look like the days of a top 5 QB and a top 5 WR on his 3rd contract are effectively over. And frankly, a guy getting a top flight WR on his second contract is pretty unlikely unless the deal is signed a year early and you leverage some AAV concessions out of it that way.
