Now, if Rice, Toney, or Skyy become serious weapons, then it's a good problem to have.

The offense was dominant the year we had Tyreek too. We had one of our best playoff games in history vs the bills then a 24 point half. our entire opinion of the Tyreek season is rooted one awful half of football. Beneath the numbers we had issues this year too. The big difference between this year and last is thar we dominated Cincy on defense.
Even still, mahomes is a different and better QB. Reid has a better understanding of how to beat these looks. And we have actual guys who can play off a wr1 whereas our offense always looked way worse without Sammy Watkins. What the right cost is and if we can afford it is plenty debatable. But the idea that a WR1 or even Tyreek for that matter hurts us (dollar value aside) is a bit of Hocus pocus. Veaxhs plan was to keep Tyreek and have juju play off of him and it's hard to imagine that wouldn't have also been great. Mahomes is way too good of a QB to believe his ceiling is to be an efficient catch and run QB.
