Stevenson or Toney.?

Also, Mahomes is a better deep ball thrower than Burrow.
Last, the Chiefs offense is way better at scheming receivers open compared to the Bengals.

In 2020, here is the overall average receiver target separation for Mahomes vs Burrow:
Mahomes - 1.94 yards (7th in NFL)
Burrow - 1.25 yards (30th in NFL)

If the Bengals get a fast guy, they need to use him a lot in the short and intermediate routes, which have a higher catch percentage compared to deeper routes.

While I agree with the speed aspect to a point, it can’t be denied that Andy Reid and his folks scheme receivers open better than just about anyone else in the league. Play design, looks, and route concepts play a part in this. I would like to see more speed provided it actually gets used instead of trotting out marginal talents like Erickson, Tate, etc. If the team does not re-sign AJ (I hope they don’t), then some combination of Higgins/Boyd/draft pick/draft pick-FA has to be the top 4 WR’s. The WR room needs some talent upgrades from WR3 back. Tate is fine as a WR5, but his glacial speed and zero separation don’t work away from the red zone.
Through 2023

Zac Taylor coaching record, reg. season:  37-44-1. .455 winning pct.
Playoff Record: 5-2, .714 winning pct.
