I'm pretty happy with our WR core, but feel like we could be getting a true play maker, someone who could make plays just by getting the ball in his hands.  Not sure how many times he gets out on the field during a game though, and if it wouldn't be better to draft someone who would play more snaps during a game.

I'm one of the few that don't see wide receiver as being a big need.  I think it's one of our strongest positions.  Even if a team has 6 wide receivers on the roster, they usually only activate 5 on game day.  I think D.J. Chark, Marvin Jones Jr. and Laviska Shenault makes a good starting trio.  I think Chark and Shenault will look much better with a good quarterback.  Jamal Agnew will also be activated due to his skills as a returner where he is a former first team all-pro.  That leaves Collin Johnson as the other active wide receiver.  If we draft someone early, we're pushing Johnson to being a game day inactive.  I would like to see if Johnson can develop.  Also, how much playing time would a draft pick at wide receiver get?  He would be sharing the position with Chark, Jones and Shenault.  Are we really wanting to send one of them to the bench?  Maybe I'm over-rating our existing wide receivers, but why not give it a year to find out?  We can't fix everything in one year, so why not start with positions where we know for a fact that we are weak?
