Lets Face It, Losing Jones and Sanu Hurts

[jj22]

I don't believe you can pass up on the talented defense in this draft for a 1st round wideout. There will be too many options at DT, CB, DE, and even a LB. Besides the front office just doesn't draft first round wideouts often (outside of Green). There are more Sanu's (slow can't separate) receivers in this draft then Jones. Hard to see any really worth a 1st round pick. Maybe 1. And he's likely to run a 4.75.

Just because we're desperate, we can't overvalue the receivers in this draft. And we certainly can't expect a rookie receiver to come in and make up for the catches and yards Jones/Sanu had. I don't think people are thinking clearly.

Yes, when the talent is there and not with a wideout. Dre is unknown to be back in 17, Dennard hasn't proven he can stay on the field for anyone to see if he's the future. If anything, (as great as Pacman has been the last couple years), giving a 33 year old 7m a year on a 3 year deal after drafting 2 first round corners in 3 years shows there is some issues there. Best player available. We can't be desperate and draft a wideout in the first in the weakest receiving class in a decade just because we're desperate. C'mon guys.
