Seriously, If Burden is there, you have a shot to give Mahomes a trio of Worthy, Rice and Burden for at least the next 2 full seasons, and then at least Worthy/Burden for 3 more after that if Rice ends up being too expensive. It's time for this team to give him consistant talent he can create real chemistry with at the position, and I think they're going to do that. |
For the first half of his career, we gave him everything we could.
For the last half of it, we've asked him to make due.
I think the team owes him something closer to the former than the latter over this transition era. His security blanket (Kelce) is gone.
Now the counter to that is an easy one -- do we NEED to use a 1st rounder to help? We didn't with Rice. Could that aid come in the form of Royals or Noel or Trey Harris in the 2nd? Williams or Horton later still?
It's a fair question.
