Why is no one considering double dip at WR?

Johnson and Theilen are also both most likely gone after this season vs hanging around.  Thielen is basically a TE limiting the O given what Bryce wants and needs to do with the ball.  WR is a hole short term and long term….and it’s tied to salvaging our QB. 

a 2nd rookie corner likely isn’t going to impact much…. especially if the pass game doesn’t drastically improve.  I still think a WRs and a rec RB would do more potentially for us than anything else.  Cogs in the wheel to fix the offense.  We don’t need a super stud.  We need improved O talent all over the map.  Speed. 

I would be surprised if they prioritized RB over CB. Jaycee, Dane Jackson, and Troy Hill is all we have. People find starting level RB's on day 3 all the time

I mean yeah, but a horrible offense and traded your best pass rush to surround your over drafted qb with weapons so you have to give him the tools to prove your investment was right. if we suck at corner or linebacker for a year so be it. but right now the name of the game is see what you have in bryce.

I get what you are saying but if you are a FO  who loaded the line and  brought in a vet WR in FA then and are still desperate enough to reach in order to get all shiny new toys for your “over drafted QB” to function then it doesn’t matter what the name of the game is.   The game is lost already.  
 

I’m  fine with a double dip in round 2 if it falls into place or picking up a 2nd receiver later.  Just don’t want to reach out of desperation.

I'm not sure how many WR targets people think are going to go around either, since Canales wants to be run first. Maybe 50 left over after Johnson and Thielen? I would actually like to see ISM get some snaps as well. I'm indifferent about Mingo, never liked the pick

Thielen is running on E and we really dont know what Johnson has left in the tank he didnt light it up last year at all. ISM is not the sam caliber wr as anyone there in the second round. Mingo could well be another LSU wr bust who shall not be named. best not to depend on whats on the roster now in a historically deep wr class thats strong at one of our biggest weaknesses.

    • It’s like being on the Flyers broadcast team feed so far
    • Boy the flyers look good early. Lots of bad plays and slow start by our team. Hope that changes before the score changes.
    • I guess I should have stipulated outside the sacred cow.   I complained from year one that Bryce should compete for and win the starting job on his own merit but no he was just handed it. I have been right there with everyone that wants competition.  But I don’t really have a huge problem with it for this season the way it has gone because where are the viable people we don’t have to trade for? I actually am okay with tiny hands Pickett because he is so close to Bryce arm strength wise and to be honest, skill wise. Probably. And it is only a one year deal.  That also takes into account that the QB class is looking stacked next year and if Young fails miserably then we get either a reset or a real competition and there will be more guys that I would like looking at in the FA QB class next year as well.    I sort of accept where we are this year and look at it as another treading water year (at QB). I just want to get to next year with some clarity. More than anything. And they did empty out the room. Again, who was really there for us?  And I know it would not be a true competition at this point anyway. They are giving him the year, like it or not.    Also I don’t give a poo about winning games IF he sucks and or goes down after sucking because draft position and that stacked QB class.  And I want out from under him So Bad.     So I guess it is several factors that lessen my anxiety over his backup this particular season.    I am not trying to convince anyone, but you asked. That’s how I look at it.
