Why is no one considering double dip at WR?

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.

Yeah I want to take one, just not necessarily two guys in the 30's if BPA is at a different position. I'm cool with taking another WR at 65 or in the 100's if 33/39 is BPA elsewhere. The same argument can be made for CB or Edge rusher, there's a lot more WR's than CB's and Edge guys in this draft so if one of those is BPA in the 30's it would be hard to pass up

No room to take two WR's IMO, with Mingo and ISM locked up for next year. We need the center, LB, CB, or edge more.

I’m all for double dipping at WR with our 2 first pick. Our offense needs to be the main priority this draft.

They won't address the biggest weakness so we'll continue putting plasters on a gaping wound and hope it works.

It’s really the only one that matters. No raw 2nd round edge rusher is going to do much in the grand scheme of things for us. CB? Sign Gilmore if it’s that big of a deal

This organization needs to find out what they have in Bryce this season. They absolutely should be double dipping at WR. If Bryce ain’t it then at least the next guy has a fighting chance 

This is an offensive league. You’re never going to have a complete team. You’re always going to have a weakness. Every year the league changes rules in hopes of more points being scored. Our offense was downright awful last year and people still want to spend picks on defense… I don’t get it. 

Probably because half of our starting defence was traded and / or walked in FA.

think your confusing jags for franchise or game changing players. What did Mingo or ISM do last year to show you they can elevate bryce young to be on par with Stroud or even Richardson for that matter? Nothing..  you can't go into the season saying hey we got ISM and Mingo we are ready to roll.

ISM won’t stop us from drafting a 2nd WR if value is there. Honestly we are probably carrying an extra WR with the new kickoff rule.

No room? We have the league’s worst offense We got zero long term offensive skill position players on the roster.  We have a huge investment we are trying to save at QB.  Fixing the O should be priority 1, 2 and 3. 

Mingo and ISM combined for 450 yards and no TDs.  And there is no guarantee they are better next year. 

the highlights to our roster are a WR that can’t run and had really bad per touch production we forced the ball to and a disgruntled WR the rest of the league didn’t want…..whose former team has a track record of getting rid of dudes who fall off a cliff after doing so. 

we got room

Yep, past 2 years combined he doesn’t even have 70 rec yards added up.  He is a body with a pulse. 

the offense was so bad and so predictable that a surprise end around run a couple times has some folks thinking this dude is legit.   The math ain’t mathing.

We need great players period and we are void on both sides of the ball. I would rather have an above average DE/CB than a below average WR. I do hope the BPA is a WR though.

[45catfan]

We need to draft a WR early and then if the board later on says a WR is the BPA, then we double dip.  Don't force it for the sake of filling out position group.  You always have UFAs for that.

no one in that room is good enough reason for us not to draft 2 good WRs from this class who could be long term contributors.

if we came away with both the Xaviers I’d be pretty pleased but I don’t really think they’re considering it
