To anyone who thinks this changes draft plans for the 2nd rounder, you're kidding yourselves.

I'm guessing this is a cheaper contract and more or less puts Shi on notice, can't see us keeping both of them, likely one or the other with whoever plays better in camp.

The 2nd round pick still needs to be a WR and hope we hit on a good one.  Our current WR room right now is an injury prone #1 on a 1 year deal, a #2 who has shown flashes of some skill but yet to breakout after a few years, a 33 year old slot who is the veteran presence, and then Laviska, Shi, and now Byrd.

Still far from what you want to be giving a rookie QB, gotta take a WR in the 2nd and if needed, move up a bit into the back of the first or earlier in the 2nd to get someone if nobody worth that pick will fall to us.

For those who are curious …. His contract is around 1.8m if he hits all of his incentives.

Hard to get overly excited about an 8 year vet who's highlight roll includes college games, but I like the signing. Especially at the price! Hope he balls TF out.
