I mean, I know this happens where the bar is reset for positional value and all but boy oh boy, WR2 is pricey lol.

How do you think we should address WR2 moving ahead?

Only one Answer to WR2 for us:

Chosen Anderson

 

[TylerDurden]

Thankfully, TMJ started looking tge part as the season wore on. So, I think we got two more years to figure it out, not even accounting for any gems we may find in the draft to add to the WR corps.

Hope Shi can be coached up to be the slot for us.  Flashes the ability, just need the consistency.

You pay your number 1 guy and your number 2 needs to be on a rookie deal. If your drafted 2 balls out he gets the next contract and you trade number 1 before reupping their contract. Cinncy will have issues If they pay Chase and Higgins along with Burrow

This is a challenge every team faces. Good coaching, drafting, creativity are the logical approaches. Load up on ways to stop overpriced mediocre players. Don't follow the trends

We don’t need a #2.  We need a #1.

Makes drafting skill positions more important than ever. Let someone else sign the huge contracts for so so WRs.

You need THREE receivers in the league now, not just two.

I've been thinking a lot about this. And I agree wholeheartedly. 

Too many mid-level guys out there getting big money contracts (or even bottom tier guys like Sideshow Bob) for positions that aren't in on every play. And I've said it before, and I'll keep saying it, if your star player is a WR your team has a whole host of problems.

Draft RBs, Edge and WRs high, use the four low cost years of their contract, and a fifth if they are really good, and then send them out to get the big paychecks somewhere else. 

Pay the men on the line to keep them, pay the QB when you have a good one, and keep decent pay to your DBs and LBs. And if you have a hoss at NT, pay the man to keep him happy.

But $18 million for a WR2? We're doing something like that already and it just isn't working out.

True but you can only pay one. If you get qb right you only need one stud whether it be wr or te. The rest can be rookie deal role players

You beat me to it. We already have a 2 in Moore. Need a 1.

WR and RB should really only be addressed through the draft and neither should be given a second contract. 

RB because it's just too easy to replace and second contracts aren't really worth it.

WR because they are getting just too pricey. 

every once in a while you can find a bargain, but those will be rare and rarely worth the effort regardless of price.
