Adding a bland but stable vet like Chester Rogers gives cheap stability before camp and could compete for punt return reps.  It's not that I don't like the guys we have for depth but having stability at 4th WR would be important. If the guys in house don't earn it, keep an eye on waivers. 
  

All good thoughts Phil. I agree, need a speedy vet even if I like our UDFA's, they are unknown and went undrafted for a reason.

Was a wild Draft for WR's, no one expected that many to go that early. OBJ is not the speedy vet we need though.
