The key is getting a mismatch and being able to exploit it. For that you ideally need three dual-threat instruments:

1. A QB who can both throw deep and run well (and is also comfortable throwing to all parts of the field) - check
2. RBs that can also catch passes, and at least one with top-end speed so they have to keep a safety back - check
3. TEs (preferably two or more) that can both block well and run routes/catch well - check.

Henderson and Stevenson both being able to catch the ball is great. Henry and Raridon can both run routes and catch well, though Henry is so-so as a blocker. Hill is a better blocker, but not sure how good he is as a receiver. We will find out soon! If he’s any good, I could see the team cutting Henry to save a good chunk of the cash they have to pay Brown this year.

Need 3 TEs:

(Reiss):
Tight ends combined for 2,870 receptions league-wide last season, the most by that position group in NFL history. Furthermore, there were 1,845 plays run league-wide with three or more tight ends on the field, which is the most in the data ESPN Research has tracked since 2007.
