Solid oline is worth more than having a $10M WR3. It's as easy as this: Are we better in the SB with a $10M G instead of Adeniji and Trent Talyor at WR3 or with Adeniji and Boyd?
Actually, the reason you could two high shell the Chiefs and their offense broke down for a portion of the year was the lack of a 3rd receiving threat. If you want to go down a high level rabbit hole about how we matched them late in the game you can see us do that on a couple key plays. If the Chiefs had another WR at an above average level it’s pretty easy to say you flat out aren’t stopping them. The Chiefs have stayed looking for a high level 3rd receiver enter Sammy Watkins, Mecole Hardman for a 1st, trying to sign JuJu to play in the slot last off season, etc. They will once again this off-season be on the hunt for their 3rd receiving option.
It’s a straw man argument because again there is plenty of financial flexibility to tackle the O line. This idea his money is somehow stopping this is wrong and simply spreadsheet watching without taking into account the ramifications of such a move. In all honesty, his salary isn’t even out of line for his production or skill as Nelson Agohlor signed a deal last off season at 11 million per year.
