I disagree. I think priority wise, he's second to only Josh Allen. Yes, fully aware that we have at least two to three holes to address along the offensive line and at least two holes at the minimum on the defensive line. 

However, with that said, I feel like we would potentially be just like the 2022 football team if they make an actual play off run. Sure, the pass protection improves a little bit and the running game gets better a little bit. 

We're still going to probably miss having a great route runner with chemistry already established in this offense. Continuity is a real thing. Constantly plugging and playing around at these skill positions, especially the WR position, it just feels a lot like one step forward, two steps back. 

Our schedule is tough this year man. Tough. We're getting the NFC North and AFC East along with some interesting out of conference contests. We need all the quality players we can keep on this roster while also minimizing the need to backfill positions you just invested in last year.

We just saw our 8 - 3 hopeful start to 2023 come to a grinding halt due to injuries, and most of those injuries were in the WR room. Ridley at least stayed healthy when we needed him out there.
