Kansas City Chiefs have been a dominant force in the NFL for the past few years, thanks in large part to quarterback Patrick Mahomes. However, the Chiefs have been criticized for not having a true No 1 wide receiver, with tight end Travis Kelce often carrying the load in the passing game. But, longtime Chiefs fan believes that the team doesn’t need to add any extra help to win another Super Bowl.

Chiefs debate: Superstar or No 1 wide receiver for 20-0 season?

During a recent discussion, there was an argument that the Chiefs don’t need to add a superstar wide receiver to their roster to win the Super Bowl. Instead, he believes the team needs a No 1 wide receiver to go 20-0. Longtime Chiefs Fan Nick Wright pointed out that the Chiefs heavily rely on Kelce, who is 33 years old and the oldest productive pass catcher in football by a mile.

While Kelce has been incredibly healthy throughout his career, he is an aging player who doesn’t even play receiver.

Regarding the cost of acquiring Odell versus Hopkins, Nick said, “Double the salary and trading a second round pick is very different…he’s a better player yeah but if you who would you get in the second round and what could you do with that extra 10 million dollars real thing.”

The team holds the belief that Tyreek Hill is their No 1 receiver, adding Odell as the No 2 would provide much-needed depth and talent to the position.

Nick Wright: Paying Lamar Jackson is the only solution

The discussion also touched on the situation with Lamar Jackson and the Baltimore Ravens. Nick also expressed his belief that the Ravens have alienated Lamar Jackson by not giving him the money he deserves, saying, “The Ravens decided to do it differently and have alienated him and there’s no solving it except for by giving him all the money and they’ve decided not to give him any of the money.” Giving him all the money is the only solution, per Nick Wright.

He pointed out that teams often give their quarterbacks big contracts after three years to avoid alienating them, and that the Ravens have gone about things differently.

Lastly, while the Chiefs don’t necessarily need a superstar wide receiver to win the Super Bowl, adding a No 1 wide receiver would provide much-needed depth and talent to the position. And, as the Ravens have shown, failing to compensate a star quarterback properly can lead to significant problems down the road.
