It's kind of an offshoot of the fact that the majority of board members prefer a "trenches first" team building philosophy, which is fine, but then fall back on "I think X we took in the 6th round last year is going to be a plus starter" as a way to defend not addressing skill positions on offense in their mock off-seasons and drafts. Since it's kind of a yearly thing, it falls back to Binns comparisons.
Ironically, I don't recall us being very WR poor during Binns' brief tenure. He just got overhyped because he was a UC guy, imo.
Prior to that 2012 Binns season, Marvin Jones hasn't emerged yet, and Sanu was a rookie too. I also wanna say that Sanu was injured to start that season? It seems to me that it was AJ Green plus some guys as the WR corps.
Also I think we're gonna see what a pretty big luxury it was to have Tyler Boyd as our number 3. I don't think anybody on this roster is ready to match his production.
