With Hill and Kelce on the field, Watkins becomes more of a beast
The reason Watkins yardage was so-so last year is two-fold
Watkins joined the team late and Goff didn't get the reps in with him
Goff likely did not feel comfortable forcing the ball to him because of lack of reps. Mahomes shouldn't have this problem because he simply throws to open receivers, whereas more conservative QBs like Goff and Smith are averse to this.
