Of 3 players on either side of the ball that play at really high to elite levels.
The Chiefs have Kelce Mahomes Hill
The Browns have Garrett Mayfield Teller or Chubb
The Bills have Diggs Allen or White

Pick your 3 for the Cats that have play at very high levels
In order for this team to reach the playoffs

Im going with
JONAH WILLIAMS
D.J READER
TEE HIGGINS

This is easy for me.  I am assuming normal progression for existing players and rookies doing what is projected of them but the "Key Three" for me would be:

Trae Waynes-  Huge question mark.  Not the greatest year in 2019 and injured all of last year.  He will be one of the starting CB positions and they need him to play like a CB1

Logan Wilson-  Will be on the field essentially all the time for defense.  Mostly in nickel, which gives him a lot of ground to cover.

Joe Mixon-  The offense needs balance to be elite.  It is time for Joe to be healthy, stay on the field on third down, and show he is a top tier back.

If those three produce, based on what I see elsewhere, I could see this team making the postseason with 10 wins.
