Look at Amari Cooper, Odell, Tyler Lockett, Mike Evans, Jarvis Landry, etc. I think it might not be a bad choice to go to the draft for receiver help and resign the needs and go big on defense in outside FAs.
Plenty of guys drafted in the first three rounds recently haven't done jack. Yes a couple years ago was probably the best WR class ever. That doesn't mean it magically makes this class better. I don't even think there is a top 10 talent at WR this year. Treadwell doesn't seem like that special of a talent to me. I don't think there is a lock stud WR. Definitely nobody I would feel comfortable just giving the #2 job to. Sure I have some WRs in this class that I really like but it kinda feels like a down year for the WRs overall.
WR could go from a relative strength to glaring weakness in a hurry if we go into the year counting on a bunch of unproven guys behind AJ. It usually takes a couple of years for WRs to become productive.
