That's an interesting question for the FO to answer next season.

If Tee is indeed capable of being a #1 for a team like most of us believe, he's not a high end #1 (or elite #1). I don't think his ceiling is the type of WR that defenses have to change the way they play and gameplan to always have 2+ guys covering or risk getting burned for a TD and breaks far less tackles than you'd expect from a guy his size (only 2 broken tackles over the last 2 years combined).

He's also gets banged up a whole lot and hasn't played 70% of the offensive snaps since his rookie year when he played a career high 74.8%. Don't know if he can play the >80% that would be expected from a #1 WR to keep us from having Burton as our #1.

I think the goal should be 1 great QB and 1 great weapon and then fill in the rest of the weapons with inexpensive guys. Tee is good, but I don't know if he's "put the offense on my back all year" good.

It's a question I've asked a few times, and the simple answer is "Pay Chase because he's better". BUT we give Chase a deal similar to what JJ just signed and Team cap raises at its usual pace; it 2026-2027 we'd have 2 players eating up about 35-40% of the cap. 

It's why KC parted ways with Tyreek

It's why Minny can afforded to give JJ this contract (QB on rookie deal)

Something has to give.
