Idk if it's completely insane. It would depend on who you have on the other side. CeeDee had a crazy year but he's also the only good offensive option on his team. Depending on the situation, Devonta is like 4th or 5th on his team because they're so stacked.
I think Devonta could put up 1500/15td seasons in the right offense. They're both Tier 2 receivers, assuming JJ is alone in tier 1.
I genuinely like both, I think CeeDee is the better NFL WR, but I don't think it's crazy. Devonta Smith might fit better in the Eagles offense where you want a WR to respond to a QB that can make plays in the backfield and prolong a play. ALthough we haven't really seen CeeDee Lamb in that kind of offense, especially as Dak ages and matures, so hard to say how he would be. I see CeeDee as more of a set route runner, establishes separation and goes out and gets the ball, and Smith as someone who can break off his route and come back to the ball but isn't naturally a top high point receiver on set routes. I think CeeDee fits in more offenses across the league as a more traditional X and Devonta fits the Y as an accompanying piece.
Chosen, as in drafted? Kinda hard, there aren't a lot of young coaches who are allowed to pick their QBs in the draft, and then you kinda need that QB to fail in order for you to have an opportunity to pick one later in your career. Reid got it because he drafted McNabb, the bona fide top QB in the draft as soon as he Reid came to Philly, and then got Mahomes, which I think you can give him credit for.
Joe Gibbs won super bowls with multiple QBs, and while Theismann was a top QB for a couple years until he got hurt, Doug WIlliams and Mark Rypien weren't *great* QBs, unless we're really stretching the definition of great. Gibbs ran a rush-first, smash mouth offense, and found pieces that fit.
*edit* he also didn't draft Williams or Theismann. Just realized this going thru his draft history.
Gibb's drafted QBs:
- Tom Flick
- Phil Kessel
- Bob Holly
- Babe Laufenberg
- Jay Shroeder
- Mark Rypien
- Stan Humprhies
- Cary Conklin
- Chris Hakel
- Jason Campbell
- Jordan Palmer
Parcells didn't draft Phil Simms, he did draft Bledsoe in 93, and he didn't draft Romo, Romo was a undrafted free agent, although I guess that could count, but I dunno, Romo didn't even play for his first 2 years in the league.

Hey now don't forget 2 time Superbowl winner Jimmy Gorgeous
Chris Simms had Roman Wilson as his fifth best receiver in the draft and put him on the same tier as Rome Odunze, so I'm going to choose to assume he has insight into the wide receiver position that we are all just lacking.
Lamb has a slightly higher catch % and yards per target than Devonta last year and over the past 3 years. Which is made more impressive by the volume (opponents knew he was the main weapon).
With the Eagles locking Smith up for another few years before some big name guys reset the market, maybe you could argue he'll provide better contract value than what you think Lamb's extension will be.
If Boyd was only wanting a 1-year deal, I am shocked that the Chiefs or Chargers didn't scoop him up.
Titans suddenly with a good group of receivers. Maybe second only to the Texans in that division with Hopkins, Ridley, and now Boyd.
LETSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO DEEEEEEEEEEEEYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
Thank fuck Boyd didn't go to Shitsburgh
The only QB that has proven he can stop Mahomes, Allen is a bum. Just needs to stay healthy..
The defense that got Burrow to the Superbowl is kind a shell of what it was.

This guy needs to get out of the state of Texas immediately. Immediately.
Clearly not a good for him to be there
Idk how he hasn't been on self-imposed house arrest after the hit and run. What an idiot to even continue putting himself in these environments
Maybe this combined with the reckless driving and nearly killing innocent people will be enough to suspend him for the season or at least a good chunk of it.
People don't realize how lucky they are and how quickly it can all fall apart

Allen has played phenomenal in the BUF/KC games too.
McAfee has talked about how players from not so great upbringings coming off their rookie season in the NFL can easily end up in bad spots. It's their first chance to take a breath and enjoy the fruits of their labor, they go back home rich, are surrounded by leeches and bad influences they were insulated away from. Every year there's at least one rookie who goes back home and gets into trouble, looks like this year Rashee is the one.
Yeah, I remember seeing a tweet last season that Allen has 3 out of the top 4 performances against the Chiefs in the playoffs since Mahomes has been there, yet he got no wins.Kansas City Chiefs at Cincinnati Bengals - January 2nd, 2022 | Pro-Football-Reference.com

That's where his friends/bad influences are clearly. He should've kept in KC during the off-season
I get it, spite and all, but I would think about moving to other platforms if I was her.

As progressive as Mina is she is still a media personality. She has to be where the people are to get noticed and get clicks. There is still no viable replacement for Twitter so she still has to use it.
It sucks, but it is what it is.
