I disagree that the Chiefs won’t ever have the picks to get an all-around receiver. DeAndre Hopkins was the #27 pick. Stafon Diggs was a Day 3 pick.

I was on the forums so I know a lot of people liked him. Some people mentioned him as having long speed which I never saw and I think I was the same as you in seeing different players dependent on which year I watched. Oh I'm not saying it's impossible to get that all-around receiver, just hard, and the next best option is to find a specific skillset you think your group lacks, imo
