I don’t know his entire upside but at least he fits the mold of the every down primary guy some of his have been clamoring for. It didn’t cost a bazillion dollars to get him but he’s already proving that there are so many things we can now open in our playbook because we have him. And I believe that will continue to ring true.
But not everyone cared if we took a WR. They would have been fine skipping WR to make sure we got a pass rusher and OT squared away. Betting the farm on skyy to step in and be the target monster juju was. Most of the people didn’t care if we went young as long - they would have settled for cheap and a second rate priority to virtually every other position on the field. And no I don’t subscribe to that approach at all. We needed a WR like rice. We likely still need to shoot for guys better than rice in the upcoming drafts. If that means using the draft not just once, but frequently, great.

That's you.
I just had an exchange with MahomesMagic in this thread where he asked me what I would do if the WRs are much of the same as we had the first three weeks, as if standing pat midseason was a completely idiotic course of action.
This thread is full of other posters either demanding/proposing that Veach go hunt for a WR trade immediately or lamenting that we weren't more aggressive in acquiring Poopkins.
Those posters lack patience. And frankly, they lack trust in the organization and coaching staff.
