Going into the draft, I wasn't as big on drafting wide receiver as many people.  Obviously, I would love a star wide receiver, but it seemed like we had too many other priorities in order to take a wide receiver early.  Josh Allen and Jawaan Taylor were clearly the correct picks in round 1 and 2.  We then needed a tight end in round 3.  It's pick 3B where we could have gone wide receiver.  The problem is that this is likely too late.  I know everyone hopes for a diamond in the rough, but I try to be realistic in my expectations.

A late 3B probably wouldn't beat out Lee or Westbrook for a starting spot.  You would basically be looking for competition for the third wide receiver spot.  The problem is even that would have been iffy.  Chark was a second rounder last year.  We would be hoping a third rounder this year beats out a second rounder from a year ago.  I know there is give and take with picks and maybe Chark is a bust, but I think he gets another chance.  He was a rookie last year and had bad quarterback play.  Hopefully, he improves.  We also signed a veteran in Conley in case Chark doesn't develop.  We still even have Cole.  He looked impressive as a rookie but then struggled last year.  Could he bounce back?  Would a late third rounder beat out all three of those guys?  Maybe, but it still feels extremely iffy to me.  

I would say that we completely blew our 3B pick on a special teams player that most thought would go undrafted.  A wide receiver in the third would have been a far better move, although free safety probably would have been my preference at that spot.
