I don't think they're 'system guys' so much as they have differing skillsets. You have a couple with incredible long speed in Hardman, MVS.. You have one that's very physical in Juju. You have a couple with elite quickness, with Hardman again, Moore, and Toney. There is some youth there with Moore and Toney, so there's some projection but we're not drafting top 5-we won't get the Jamarr Chase's.
Our problems offensively stem from 1)poor OT play, 2)Mahomes still sometimes will not take the easy outlet pass and 3)a lot of new parts.
Despite all of that, this is a top NFL offense. And Kelce won't just fall off the cliff, barring catastrophic injury. He may slow down, but he's got a long way to go before he's JAG.

Like I said, I think we’ve got great WRs. But the all need to get bumped one position down. Juju is a great possession guy… for a WR that can open it up underneath. MVS is an over the top guy. Skyy is intriguing but likely not a WR1. Hardman and Toney are terrific… within a specific lane. All these guys get significantly better if we have a WR1 who can consistently beat stud CBs like tredavious white.
Most of our offense is run around efficiency so I don’t get the idea that mahomes needs to somehow be way more efficient. You know how burrow gets rid of the ball quickly? Chase quickly beats his man and then throws the ball anywhere remotely near his catch radius. Of course we gotta get better protection and mahomes needs to continue to progress as a pocket qb. We’re doing that. The idea that we need to put all our eggs in that basket for a qb this talented is a waste. We can run an efficient offense and have explosive playmakers at the same time.
