I think adding another pass catching TE in the 3rd round or so will really help out the WR core. Malone and Core have been the most disappointing to me. I agree that we should add another talented WR in the mid rounds to compete. Erickson is still a good Returner, i think he still makes the team unless someone like Phillips becomes a great Returner for us.

I see what you are getting at, but I have to admit the fact that the young guys who got a chance to get on the field unanimously disappointed and the young guys who didn't get a chance to get on the field still have exciting potential doesn't bode well, either.

It just seems like every year we watch the WRs we used to be hyped about disappointing and getting in the way of the WRs we are hyped about right now...who then become the WRs we used to be hyped about that are getting in the way of the WRs we are hyped about now.  Son on and so forth, ashes to ashes, etc.  Sort of like the Steelers have a young and ego-free cheap #2 WR who replaces their over-paid diva cancer #1 WR before becoming an over-paid diva cancer #1 WR who will be gleefully replaced by a young and ego-free cheap #2 WR, himself.

I see some real WR hierarchies, going on here.
