Reid has definitely proven himself to be creative, but depending on what they do in the draft... the impact of not having Hill is going to be huge, especially in the first half of the season. Chiefs need more from the ground game, yes Mahomes is inhuman, but it wouldn't hurt to have more on the ground. CEH is a R1 bust at this point. Not saying he can't be dominant, he's only entering Y3, but he certainly hasn't played to the draft selection expectations. More pressure on the ground game without Hill. Kelce is the key, has been for a while and at 33, when does he start to hit the wall - dude has been very healthy, so that's good for KC.

CEH is a bust for where he was taken...but he's not worthless.
I have no idea why the Chiefs drafted him...when one of his strengths was catching out of the backfield...they almost never use him in that capacity....and he's open a lot.
If Mahomes ever decides to check down to his RB with regularity...they will be almost impossible to stop.
