Someone please tell me why we didn't pay Horton to stay?

I thought Horton was definitely a very good player, but we have to wonder how much better he looked because a 1st round pick was throwing him passes. And that makes you question his $$ value.

If Tom Brady and Pat Mahomes have taught us anything, it is that a great QB makes the receivers, not the other way around.

And because he was frequently on the field with 3 superior WRs to himself....

Would have been nice if he stayed. He seemed like he was ready for a bigger role. I lined what I saw from the other WRs in the bowl game but they are still less proven than Isaiah.

Horton should have definitely started over Brown*. I believe he had much better hands and was a better route runner. Even though Brown* was more explosive he rarely got show it due to his struggles catching in traffic and contested balls down field. Money might not have been the only reason he left. It's tough to play behind someone you believe you're better than. It's even tougher to trust that won't happen again. I hate it but I understand his decision.

Great WRs may not make Qbs, and obviously not more than great Qbs or systems make Wrs. But Great WRs make Great WRs more than anything.
WR is one of the most valuable positions on the Team. Probably top 3 or 4.
