Maybe at first, but I could see him eventually battling Moncrief and possibly taking over the top spot by season's end.

Two more thoughts on the early rounds as I still don't know much after about round two...

1. I'd still have to consider Lamar Jackson at #29.
2. When I saw Goedert and Gesicki getting passed up at #29, at first I thought we need to grab one of them, but then knowing they both dropped makes the chances of Hurst being there for our round two pick even more likely. Getting Hurst in round two in my book is the better bargain so I get taking the risk. Still, it's really tough for me to actually pass on Goedert if he does fall.

Jackson isn't even an option in my mind. He's a skinny, unfinished product at QB and I don't believe he will ever develop as a passer. He should've stayed in school. Coughlin is not a fan of early entries at the QB position either. I believe he covets a Senior signal caller. If Jackson gets chosen in round one by a team, it's purely out of desperation. IMO, drafting Jackson would be the worst mistake we could make at QB. It would be a wasted opportunity to get an immediate starter or future star.

I just can't see them putting $10 million guy 2nd fiddle to a rookie in a weak class and then putting the $18 million guy at #3, not to mention Cole falling to the #4 and rarely seeing the field. Then Dede becomes never used and that pick was wasted.

That money we paid Lee was out of desperation and it's really not much considering what other guys got. This was a very weak FA WR class and we didn't want to pay big bucks for a mid tier receiver, when Norwell was apparently our big FA target all along. I believe Dede and Cole would get used the same as they ever would be. Their spots would be safe. Lee would be the odd man out. He just brings nothing special to this offense and would be easily replaceable.
