And so I agree that they needed to upgrade at running back.
I mean, they had Kareem Hunt and Isaiah Pacheco last year.
That's not good enough.
That's a bad running back room.
But I feel like there's this wide middle ground between Isaiah Pacheco and Kareem Hunt.
and paying Kenneth Walker III $14 million per year, when I'm sorry, I look at your roster and I see a lot of holes.
I don't know who's playing wide receiver.
Three-fifths of your secondary just left in free agency.
I don't love your pass rush.
Like to me, this is a luxury move.
And while the Chiefs have been obviously a very successful franchise, I don't think the state of the roster right now is in a spot
where they could make luxury moves.
So I think they could have addressed this need with fewer resources, whether it's signing someone like Tyler Algier, you know, for 6 million rather than 14 million, and then drafting someone in the second or third round.
You know, a lot of people said to me, well, you haven't been paying attention to the Chiefs.
They've tried dart throws.
And I'm like, no, they haven't.
They've spent, you know,
two seventh round picks in the last five years on running back.
That's the only draft capital.
Like there's the third round, there's the second round, there's the fourth round.
