providing more value than their contract, which they desperately need.
That's kind of where I think they have to look at with this draft.
Like, let's go get guys that can win right now, play right now and kind of like, I think over, you know, kind of just like overplay their value on these contracts because they need young, cheap players.
It's going to be, you know, these teams that like over invest, but invest a ton of capital in quarterback.
You're going to need obviously like cheap players on these rookie deals.
And it's a big reason why I think
I think we always like with these with these with the Super Bowl era for the Chiefs, like obviously Mahomes is like the first, second, third, fourth, fifth name people bring up.
But you think about how they've drafted and just the value that they've gotten on rookie contract players in that time, I think is a big reason why to that Chiefs dynasty, like or mini dynasty, whatever it is, like actually propel through is like they were hitting on a lot of picks specifically on defense and getting value over over what they were spending in a big way.
Like, you know, in the fourth round and your defensive coordinator knows how to turn them into like, yeah, that's true.
that's a hit, right?
Same with the Brian Cook, Trent McDuffie, Cor Loftus arguably a hit.
Chris Jones has been a massive hit for them.
I think Drew Tranquil was a hit for them.
They figured, I don't think they drafted him though, but I think they figured out how to, I think Spagnuolo specifically has figured out how to maximize a lot of that defensive talent, where
they need help, I think, is offense, right?
It's like the guys that they've drafted, like Clyde Edwards, Hilaire.
I don't think they're getting what they expected out of Xavier Worthy.
They need to hit on some offensive skill player picks to, I think, really take this to the next level because you're running out now.
No Tyreek Hill, no Travis Kelsey soon.
He's going to need some more weapons.
