The counterpoint I would give is that Hill and Kelce were SO good and SO in their primes during those years that everyone else around those two were basically moot, even if they were above average producers on offense.

Yeah, that's the thing. There are only so many balls to go around if you have two really good receivers of some type.
I think Gray is a really solid TE. Might not be Kelce, but he's capable of being a guy you can lean on a bit and be a 750-850 yard TE if he's the every-down guy. That's pretty solid.
You add a quality slot and an RB that can make plays out of the backfield, suddenly you have a high-octane offense.
The calls for all these high-end weapons like a Metcalf seem unwarranted. Buy Hollywood or Elijah Moore, get a RB, draft a #4, and you're in really good hands at that point, IMO.
The thing that's truly hard to obtain is a LT to allow that machine to work. That has to be the focus above all things in FA and the draft. You can't just settle for a FA and call it a day. You need a guy developing behind him too because if that FA gets injured you're ****ed again.
