This is a good point but probably not in the way you intended.

If AI is the wide receiver, it’s perceived currently by many to be an absolutely elite top-tier receiver.

Especially at lower leagues, QBs who have these clearly elite WRs are discounted and considered more-or-less replaceable all the time, because “anyone could throw the ball to Megatron 2.0”.

See, for example, Graham Harrell at Texas Tech: Paired with Michael Crabtree, put up insane numbers, went undrafted. Shedeur Sanders is another more controversial recent example.

It’s definitely not a guarantee that people will see the QB as valuable if the WR is that good.
