You never said either one of them

I said just because one can play in the slot at a high level doesn't make you a slot WR.  I used Jerry Rice but you could use most of the elite WRs.  I didn't realize you thought all the guys you named were just good in the slot.    I've also stated that Kirk done most of his damage from the slot and wasn't very affective from the outside.  I didn't realize I had to use those exact words for you to understand.  I'm glad Upper was able to get it through to you

Oh I get it - you just talked in circles around it without stating it. 
What you don't see is that the value of a productive slot receiver is changing in today's NFL. In large part to the increased production at the position that some of the names listed have brought to it, but also by guys that spent the vast majority of their snaps in the slot. 

It's absolutely fair to say that Christian Kirk is probably not as versatile as some of the "big slot receivers" listed in the past few pages. It's also fair to say the ones on that list who have been paid recently were paid commensurately to their ability/versatility. 

Whereas Kirk's deal with only 2 years guaranteed and only 50% potential pay guaranteed suits his apparent lack of versatility.

A lack of versatility you and I have both stated may be proven to be less egregious under Pederson and Lawrence.

Ask again around Christmas. 
We might know (or care) if his contract is a ridiculous overpayment by then.
