Some folks will howl over this but, honestly, it will be hard for anyone to crack into our WR roster this season. We may not have the names, but we're just coming off of a 15-1 regular season and a Superb Owl appearance. That year was built on the backs of our no-names and cast offs receiving corps. 

These guys we have are good, better than the replacements out there and they play hard. With KB coming back, you'd have a hard time pinning someone in higher than WR5.

And most of these players are still young guys with a lot of tread left on their tires.

Mehhhh. I dont want another tall, big bodied possession type guy. If we draft a wr he needs to be a sure handed, deep threat that can play the slot also.

He's much more than that. This guy is a legitimate playmaker and a perfect slot guy for our offense. Yes, he's not fast (4.61) but he's already a great route runner. This means he can play immediately for us. Boyd is aver real possibility for us in the 2nd round.

He did a 4.5 at his pro-day. After drops this year, we need sure hands

IN OUR VIEW: A graceful athlete, he trusts his hands and uses quick eyes to snatch and immediately analyze his surroundings, but his body size does lead to durability concerns, especially over the middle. Despite average measureables, Boyd is an exquisite catcher of the football and able to stand out by paying attention to the details, putting his value in the top 50 range. His ideal NFL fit is in the slot in a Jarvis Landry-type role.

Sterling Shepard 2ND round  . Get either DE /saftey/ CB in the 1st,  and get a dude that can catch and run good routes in the 2nd .

Name the top slot receivers that are the teams deep threats.

Speed goes outside to stretch the field.

We had the best team in the NFL last year, but one of the worst WR corps.  Has just a few months of no football made most of you forget this?  Don't y'all remember drop after drop after drop?  A contributing factor to our SB loss was dropped balls and our WRs' inability to beat single coverage.  It allowed Denver to blitz with almost reckless abandon.

      And even worse you have injuries force you to play anther one dimensional train wreck combine that with Orlov being no were close to as advertised and boom you have 3 defensemen being dressed who couldn't defend my 96 year old grandmother. That said next year having Slavin,Miller,Nikishin,Chatfield gives you the best shutdown d man in the league two large athletic HIGH offensive potential D who can take away time and space....   The more I think about it the more I like this seasons approach, if you bring back burns or aquire anther large RHS with length you have 5 D all over 6'2 and 210 with three of them having great offense too, make no mistake they want size and skill on the blue line now and its almost 100% directed at getting past FL.

      Honestly the 2024 draft class(minus brooks). All are in line to be starters, expect crumedy who's fighting for a 53.  Still that class was looking terrible, is now looking like 4 starters and maybe 1 depth. Anytime you draft 2 starters and a key depth piece its a good draft. 4 starters are rare and that's with brooks who could have made 5 starters if not for awful luck.  That draft also helped land starter Michael Jackson in a round about way, big bonus..
