Me too but many here seem to want boldin.
Looking at WRs
Green
Lafell
Boyd
Tate*
Should all have spots (I also have tate penciled in) So maybe 2 or 3 spots for the Rest. Alford and Core aren't gaurenteed spots. But you would think back end WRs would need to do special teams work. Not to say someone like Boldin or Johnson couldn't help us by starting in front of boyd for a few games but eventually boyd will need to take their spot. (we got spoiled by AJ and always expect rookie WRs to contribute right away now it took sanu and jones a few years to be decently productive)
How many rookie WRs do we really want on our roster? I say maybe 1 2 if core shines in preseason outside of that I could see guys like wright and kamerow possibly making the squad. Are we in win now mode or we still keeping a long eye to the future.
