Observations from Doug Farrar's Story on NFL Teams Drifting Away from Having a WR1

If it's not happening now, I think it will eventually. Teams are starting to run into problems with two receivers wanting 30mil/year contracts. Hill/Waddle got it. 49ers can't pay Aiyuk and Deebo. Bengals can't pay Higgins and Chase...
But will pay QBs double to have 65% of their yards come from YAC...lol. :shrug:

On another note, something in the article caught my eye.

Last season, per Sports Info Solutions, the Chiefs led the NFL in dropbacks with pre-snap motion with 546. Mahomes completed 336 passes in 489 attempts with motion for 3,389 yards, 1,219 air yards, 23 touchdowns, eight interceptions, and a passer rating of 109.9. Without motion, Mahomes completed 169 of 257 passes for 1,845 yards, 850 air yards, 10 touchdowns, seven interceptions, and a passer rating of 88.4. The Chiefs knew they didn’t have the kinds of receivers who could consistently separate without schematic help, so they gave them as much schematic help as possible.
And people think I am tripping when talking about scheming..
