Again, I never said that this “will” be a reset year. What I said was that I was prepared for it as a possibility given the way the offseason was playing out, an extremely tough schedule, and the rest of the division/AFC going all-in.
This draft is full of guys that are ready to contribute. They drafted at least 5 guys that should be able to play significant roles.
Trent McDuffie for example was one of the safest prospects/picks in the draft. It’s entirely realistic that we could see zero drop-off from Ward. I’d argue McDuffie might even be an upgrade. He’s that ****ing good/ready.
Of course that changes expectations. He was a top 15 player on my board. I was not expecting an addition like that. Not to mention Karlaftis, which was my best case scenario first pick for the Chiefs. Why would these additions not slightly change expectations?
