That being said, we have to hit on our draft picks to be in a position to do stuff like this.

It didn't seem like it was terribly hard to keep Reggie Wayne, Marvin Harrison, and Manning. It was pretty hard to replace Marvin Jones though. In fact, they never did. Somebody posted Brandon LaFell's 2016 stats on here the other day without the context that AJ Green missed plenty of time that year. I'm sure Eifert did too, and
Tyler Boyd was a baby. In desperation we reached for John Ross the following year.

I know you can't keep everyone, but I'm not a fan of just letting guys who lived up to their hype or developed well just walk. To me you cut dead weight (Mixon and Pratt for starters), pony up some of that money that's laying around, and make Katie earn her money to make it all work.
