It hurts to lose two WRs, but neither was our number one.  I don't see any way we use a first round pick on a #2 WR while we have Eifert.

We will sign a cheap free agent and probably draft 2 WRs, but we won't take one before the third round.  Possibly second round, but I am betting third or later.

Depends on how the Bengals feel about the WR talent at the time of their pick in RD1.  If they feel there is one guy they believe fits their mold and can produce immediately they may pull the trigger, otherwise like you I think they sign someone longer-in-the-tooth and develop mid to lower round picks.

We're not talking about needing a #1 WR.  I think we'll be fine as long as AJ an Eifert stay healthy.  Anybody they can add that forces at least some respect in coverage will satisfy the need.

There is only 1 football to go around per play, and we saw how a #2 WRs numbers (MLJs) numbers work within the current scheme.  Definitely not earth shattering.
