I do. Especially at WR. As it stands now, our receiving unit is no better than it was last season.

You keep repeating that.  But it simply is not true.  Kirk is better than every WR we have on the roster.  Zay Jones is at least the 3rd best, depending on how much Marvin still has in the tank.  I agree that we're still looking for an X than can be a difference maker.  But if they manage to draft one, the unit will be head and shoulders better than last year, accounting for Chark's injury.

I vehemently disagree. When Chark was healthy, he was an average X receiver. Kirk is an average slot receiver. That is a wash. We lose an average player at one WR spot and we gain one at another. Zay Jones is nothing. He was a 4th string receiver with the Raiders until Henry Ruggs was released and he did next to nothing when he was in games. Marvin Jones sucks, Laviska Shenault shouldn't even be employed and Agnew is coming off a hip injury. I see no difference between last season's group of receivers coming into the season and this year's group. We may even be slightly worse since Jones is a year older and Agnew is coming off an injury.
