Should we draft two WRs in the first two rounds?

For awhile I have been hearing how we should draft a WR and defense in the first two rounds, and up until today I also thought that, but after thinking about it longer, why not just draft two WRs in the first two rounds? I know the initial thought seems absurd at first but really think about it..

This draft class is extremely deep and strong (I know, que the Thas What She Said comments) at WR, I could see Keenan Allen, Patterson and Hopkins, atleast one or two of them in the 2nd round being avaliable. Just imagine how beastly it would be if we drafted Tavon Austin in the first and say a Keenan Allen or Hopkins in the 2nd round. You have to admit, the thought of that gets you excited.

Just think, Smitty has two years tops left in his career. In two years we could have Tavon Austin/Hopkins as our number 1/number 2 and Lafell as our number 3. You have to admit, that is one hell of a WR corps.

Also think about this, is there any DT that will be avaliable in the 2nd round that will be potential game changers? I personally dont think so. And the talent drop off is pretty huge with O lineman as well. The bottom line is, we have worked out a ton of WRs, could it be possible that Gman is looking to double dip and solidify our WR corps for the next decade?

This is the deepest WR draft class in quite some time and wouldnt be mad whatsoever if this happened.

Not dogging you opinion but I would be fuging furious if we did that stupid poo. Do you people think we can add 4 Wr and score 80 points a game or something? It doesn't work that way.

Examples:

2012 Saints - Great fuging offense no defense 7-9 record.

2011 Panthers - 5th ranked scoring offenses bad defense 6-10 record.

You know. I made a comment about this but it was all in good fun. If we take a WR in both the 1st and 2nd Adams, Pilares, and any WR we picked in the past 3 years would become a waste.

I love Adams, but $hit I would cut him loose with AE, Gettis and Pilares and go with a corp of 89, LaFail, Hixon, Ginn (ST?), Keenan, and Hunter.,

no because if they don't score every time they have the ball. We have to watch Fua and a horrible secondary get crushed.

I'm just trying to put some life into this thread, but what if we change Sione Fua to Sione Pouha, Keenan/Hunter (1/2), and get a guy like Shamarko Thomas in the 4th? We have to agree that on paper, we have a already better defense than last year with an improved secondary. If we can add Pouha and Thomas, the defense dramatically improve. Maybe, we could go two receivers after all.

      I would write “give remmers tight end help” on a yellow sticky note and stuck it in shulas playbook the night before superbowl 50.

      Nothing wrong with it at all until you start telling others they are bad fans or not fans. But you are the good fan because you never say negative stuff about the team.    I did many years of that type of uninformed fanning because there really was no info and coverage like there is with the internet.    I mean, I used to go to the store and get Street and Smith’s annual football issue. That was about the extent of what you could get if you didn’t live in a big city with sportswriters covering and reporting.  There was no video to look at or replay the games and if you didn’t live in the market you could only rarely see your football team play.    TI have fanned since being a kid in the early 1960s, and as late as 1995 - ‘97 I lived in Atlanta and good luck getting more than 3 or 4 games a year on TV. No radio either. No print coverage outside of an AP recap and box unless they played Atlanta.  People today that have always had the network connection don’t know.    I wasn’t very educated about the Panthers until I finally got internet.
