If anything, I can see Gute trying to load up on 2021 picks if other teams are trying that strategy. Because of those numbers you'd really expect the NFL to postpone the season a couple of months until vaccines are available. How could a team possibly expose its star players to serious long term health risks that could potentially render them unable to play? Just imagine Mahomes gets sick and developes chronic heart or lung problems - the Chiefs would still owe him the portion of his half a billion $ contract that's guaranteed against injury even if he could never play a down again, as Covid-19 counts as a football injury. Not to mention the $100m revenue loss due to empty stadiums. Starting the season on time seems complety bonkers, but then again - if the owners are fine with it, it's not my money they're gambling with.</blockquote>
