1. No it doesn't. By all means, a monster #1 WR would *help* with separation issues, etc., but it isn't the end all, be all; you need guys who can get free, scheme plays and formations/routes to free guys up, coach guys on how to use their hands at the LOS in order to gain that separation, etc. You don't need 1 WR to change that around.
2. The Bengals need multiple areas of help, namely WR, OL and EDGE, while LB also couldn't hurt. Thus, a, "monster #1 WR," would not necessarily be the only choice.
What was that about talking in absolutes?
