The 3 best WRs are all good enough to want to be #1 WRs in the NFL. They won't be that here. And Just like Marvin Jones, as soon as their contract was up, they would want to go somewhere else to be a #1 WR. So we would have traded away picks to rent a guy for 4 or 5 seasons. And the way the Bengals limit rookie play, that means they would likely have been a starter for only 3 or 4 seasons before leaving.
I don't understand the people saying we should of traded up. We have to many needs to fill to throw our picks away
for one position. With Boyd we got an excellent route runner with excellent hands to go with Green, Lafell, Eifert, Gio
and company. I think people are making way too much out of WR.
The DL and Center positions are more important in my eyes, still are.
