The Mahomes money had to be converted by a certain date. They wouldn't do that just in case if they didn't have a need for it.

Too early. Had a great week but with this group we don't even know that Justin Watson doesn't get 10+ targets again as he did 2 weeks ago.

They converted some, but IIRC, it wasn't near the max amount they could have. They won't do it anymore, they're not gnona have a single player over 25% of the cap |

It's not fair to the Chiefs and the fans that Skyy is providing the production of undrafted WR and not the second round production he was drafted at.

The WR cult is so ****ing commited to their narrative that they have to constantly downplay Rice.
Yet they'll suck Zay Flowers dick endlessly, when Rice has been every bit as productive on fewer snaps. Absolutely nonsensical. |

Rice is more athletic than JuJu was but it comes down to moving the chains and the next step for Rice is to have our coaching staff use him that way. He did get some good looks this week on 3rd down so hopefully it continues. The issue is will Rice pass last year's JuJu this year by the playoffs. JuJu performed when needed on the biggest stage in last year's SB 2nd half. Rice has a higher bar to climb than just looking the part and having a big game now and then.

And again, we didn't lose any superstar talent. We lost JuJu Smith Schuster, who was ungodly mediocre. This idea that we should've seen the loss of an average, at best, WR as something that would necessitate the addition of some premier option just ignores the reality on the ground. They needed to replace average. And not by Week 1 but by the post-season. That's EXACTLY what they've done with Rashee Rice. In fact, they've upgraded on JuJu with him. This team doesn't build for week 1. It doesn't build for week 8 or really ANYTHING in the regular season. They build a roster for the post-season. And in so doing, they determined that the only true loss from their WR room was a gimpy possession WR who they could easily replace with Rice - they were correct. In making that decision it allowed them to upgrade their OL and their DL while maintaining the same talent level at WR that they won a SB with. The only question is whether or not that talent would develop. In Rice, it very clearly has. Right this very second their WR room is, at WORST, even with the WR room that won a championship last season. And there's still room for improvement as the season progresses. Veach most assuredly didn't 'badly mishandle' the roster this offseason. He had a clear plan, executed it exceptionally well and it's coming to fruition as the season progresses. It's only ever been the end-point that matters for this organization - where they are in week 17. And they're going to be exactly where they wanted to be: A team with a similar or slightly improved WR corps to the 2022 model with upgrades on the OL, DL and added experience leading to improvements in the secondary. This is a better football team than last year's squad. To say Veach 'mishandled' it is just the height of hubris and is frankly, ignorant as ****.
