And in this offense, which is notoriously difficult to master in one season, we shouldn't go nuts in any one offseason. We should take ONE mid-rounder every year with whatever body type/play-style we feel can contribute, but expect that year one is essentially a 'get your feet wet' kind of season. |

Especially when it's a question of PAYING that 'elite' WR. If you draft one, and he develops as such, then cool, great. But having a group with diverse skillsets is just fine, and not a problem, in my opinion. |

Either way I think we end at the same place. We're probably not prioritising WR in FA or the 1st round of the draft. |

Just for fun... Spotrac suggests JuJu is only worth $15m a year, Hopkins is set to make $20m next year and $15m the year after but wants a new deal. Maybe give them equal but opposite deals? JuJu gets' something like $15m, $17.5m, & $20m for future growth and Hopkins gets $20m, $17.5m, and $15m for his decline according to their ages? Probably have to throw in some more upside for Hopkins deal. But together, that's pretty much what MIA pays just Tyreek. I think it's fun to imagine, but both will likely want more, but if you could spend a 3rd on a known star like Hopkins you don't have to gamble on a 1st RD WR. This would make us beyond elite for the next 3 years.

Trey Palmer from Nebraska might be a guy to keep an eye on somewhere on day 2. Transfered up from LSU last year. Played behind Jefferson and Chase. Had a big year at NU for a bad team.
6-1 and run a 4.44. Dude looked legit in the games I watched. |

But if you go BUY one, now you have to justify that salary, AND you probably can't afford good secondary weapons, so you're back to 2021. Stars and scrubs. Is a plus level pass rusher more valuable? ABSOLUTELY. Is a plus level pass blocker more valuable? ABSOLUTELY, I say- keeping Mahomes healthy is the entire ballgame. No Mahomes, no contender. A protected Mahomes will elevate those around him-he's already shown it. Mahomes + Best 52. This formula will have you in serious contention every year until Mahomes hangs it up. |

And while I might well pay Juju what he's earned, I would not plan on there being much more growth. He is what he is at this point, which is a useful player, but not likely to become something else. |

I know we have heart burn from drafting CEH, but I think Bijan Robinson should be someone we consider if he's there.
He's a guy that can be used frequently in the slot as well as RB. He feels more like a Deebo Samuel chess piece than a full fledged RB. You could have him + Pacheco on the field at the same time without sacrificing quality or scheme. |

Shhhhhhhhhh. I'm hoping Bum Verch has him on his I Pad. But he's not going to remain a secret after the combine.
