Mahomes has Hill, Watkins/Benjamin (don't @ me), and Kelce. (He also HAD Hunt)

Watson has Hopkins, Miller, D. Thomas, and Fuller

We have Westbrook and (sometimes) Fournette.

Watson and Fuller haven't even been able to stay on the field together consistently yet. (Fuller was battling hamstring issues before he even tore his ACL.

Demaryrius Thomas is just another guy at this point of his career.. (Think A.J. with the Colts/Titans), he's a shell of his former self and his speed is gone.

Miller has been considered just a average RB during his time here.

Hopkins.. I'll give you that, he's a beast.. but outside of him the WR position has been decimated with injuries. Fuller is gone and promising rookie KeKe Coutee can't even stay on the field without pulling a hamstring. That's the only reason why Demaryrius Thomas is even here. We also had to sign a return specialist off the Eagles practice squad a couple of weeks ago due to our WR injuries and the guy ended up leading the team in receptions last week. 

Point is Watson hasn't been surrounded by this all world talent at the skill positions.. he's had to make due with what he has (outside of Hopkins), including while operating behind one of the worst offensive lines in the league. The potential to have a Rams/Chiefs explosive skill position heavy offense is there, but our explosive HR hitting WRs (Fuller and Coutee) haven't been able to stay healthy.. maybe next year. Offensive line will also have to be bolstered through the draft. (Couldn't do it last year, because we didn't have a 1st or 2nd round pick)
