You think it doesn't matter. I think it does. No big deal. 

I don't want three Emmanuel Sanders' when I could have a Larry Fitzgerald, an Emmanuel Sanders and a Tyreek Hill in my corps instead. 

You'll pardon me if I prefer "better" to "good enough to get it done." 

I also think this tired narrative of Jags receivers not getting open is one of the stupidest things I've ever seen around here. 
Lee, Cole and Westbrook got open regularly.  Bortles was just too often late with the ball and/or off target. 
Go watch some all 22 film and look how open those guys are when they come out of their breaks and look for the ball that isn't there yet. It's pretty consistent.

I guess I would agree with this as well. The problem being is that we do not have the luxury of a big jump ball WR if we are unable to sign AR15. In a perfect world yes, you want different types of wide outs but in OP's scenario we are stating AR15 is unavailable. Which means the next best option would be Landry, which is why my point still stands, as to why the original user asked "why does everyone keep on bringing up Landry." Which I replied "why wouldn't we?" Which is where this conversation came from. Because hes the next man up and at that point we would just need a number 1 WR regardless of type of WR.

I see your point and I love Landry's skillset. He's versatile and talented. But he's still really a slot receiver. He ran 72% of his snaps from the slot last year. That's where he shines. He's like a more dynamic and gifted Julian Edelman. 

I don't want to go into 2018 with Cole being the only guy somewhat built to play outside consistently. 

If A-Rob doesn't sign and they decided to throw money at Landry - they'd have to burn an early pick on an outside receiver with prototypical size IMO. 

Do-able?  Yes.  Just not my preference of addressing the WR situation.
