Is Drafting a WR in the 2ND Really A Good Idea?

ok ok here me out and stop throwing poo at me.  If the goal is to develop Bryce Young, is brining in a rookie WR the right way to do that or just surround him with good vets?  I'm torn, we need a wr to groom but putting him on the field may hinder Youngs development.

It’s a WR heavy draft.  An ideal one to add a WR.  It’s highly likely the BPA is going to be a WR at spots…..and we need solutions to develop Bryce beyond this one season 

TE draft last year. WR this year.  If you aren’t taking advantage of what drafts have to offer and chase at other spots I don’t support that.

whats more valuable, the 8ish wr on the board, the 2ndish rated center on the board or top 5ish pass rusher?

 

I dont know the answer but thats kindof what you are looking at

This isn't as cut and dry as that the 8th best receiver out of a class of recievers with 14+ top 64 talent? Also having 32 and 39 make this a bit moot, the oline has already been approved dramatically.

I doubt they put a rookie center in front of Bryce.

The real question is taking 2 WRs in the 2nd round a good idea?

If they go into the draft determined to take two WR in the 2nd round it’s not a good idea. If the board falls that way then it’s a different story. 
 

I think it’s highly unlikely to fall that way but I could be (as I often am) totally wrong.

    • I usually don’t get attached in that way to player issues. I mostly observe. Not gonna go into Cam and Jake because this is going to be long enough already.  I just was so against taking him because I looked at him pre draft - since it was made into such a major crossroads for the team with that trade. I could see right away it was a horrible mistake once Inlooked at his video. And couldn’t believe that pro people overlooked that stuff. Just unbelievable. Still is.  But even pre draft, and certainly post draft and camp… every time I said “hmm, have you guys seen this with his arm, with his footwork, the tippy toe drop back with the square to the line stuff, it all adds time to the play and how is that gonna work against actual NFL defenders? The margins are already so slim even for people with great arms etc etc” I was met with torrents of scorn and ‘processor” and ‘SEC is the NFL’ and everything else they were fed. People wouldn’t open their eyes they just were always telling me to find another team blah blah, idiot, all kinds of hateful poo. While I am being called the hater lol.  That made it bigger than him for me. Way bigger. But, I and all the naysayers have already been proven right. He was not worth the trade or his draft position. That is in the books. Now it is new goalposts. Can he even be salvaged? Was it worth building this offense around him just to save face over the investment? Is he worth the 5th year? The 4th year even? That is what is in doubt now.
