I like the deal for both teams....Miami had to make a big move and cash in some of their draft capital with Tua being in such a make or break year. If he sucks then having Hill/Waddle will make it easier to get another QB as well possibly (if the QB carousel somewhat continues)
Chiefs we'll have to see what they do going forward but Mahomes will be 27 this year, they aren't exactly all-in on the next year or two like say GB with Rodgers being almost 40. They get some good draft capital and WR's will wanna play with Mahomes. They may take a step back but you can't keep everyone over these long runs. Kelce is old too. It probably isn't the worst year to do somerthing like this for them.
Hill is legit but these 1 of 1 freak types can fade pretty fast once they lose their signature ability that makes them so unique...Little different than a route running savant like Adams

I think a great deal for the Kansas City organization but not for Patrick Mahomes
they "somehow got it together" because they're 1 of the best teams in the NFL...Most of their early season losses were about turnover variance besides the Bills/Titans beatdowns (1 of these was avenged in the playoffs)
I think getting a 1st/2nd over paying a WR 30M per that I'm not sure how much longer he has at an elite level is pretty good value overall. Even if they are a worse team in 2022, they may have been trending that way anyway. If you wanna have a sustained run, you're gonna have to make some deals like this and sell high on guys rather than pay everyone. Like I said, Mahomes is only 27, they're obviously trying to be sustainable.
I'm much more confident Adams ages well than I am Hill (but if you're Miami what are you gonna do? No deal is perfect, they had chips that needed to be cashed in)

I'd guess Hill negotiations were going along then Adams got paid and that reset the market. KC didn't wanna go that high for Hill.
It is also a legitimate question if Miami can unlock Hill unique skillset the way KC did. I like the gamble more for Miami than how I think it'll workout for them. Him and Mahomes improvisation combo will be tough to duplicate.
That type of haul for KC you gotta be confident in your FO to get replace him though. 30M + picks is a lot.
