I'm not at all upset about the way the draft has shaken out but I did expect a pass catcher to be selected between rounds 2-5 (back then we had a 4th round pick when I was conceptualizing this)

Still, it makes no sense to think the organization sees WR as a need to be addressed high in the draft after the investment in FA.

You would be considering it a wasted the pick that could be used on more immediate needs if the expectation is that they will be buried on the depth chart due to what you did in FA.

I mean in the modern NFL you play 3 wide receivers as a base. Kirk is great, Marvin Jones is near the end of his career and needs to be replaced. Laviska Shenault is an enigma & we signed Zay Jones who's solid but not spectacular. I can easily see adding a guy to seamlessly take over for MJJ opposite Kirk. It depends on how they feel about the talent available outside of the first round; obviously there was a steep dropoff which is why they were so aggressive in free agency imho.
