And do our WR's, which like DL happens to be a very important position, really seem like their gonna be a strength for us for years to come? I mean, you take out Santana, and we probably have one of the worst receiving corps in the league after number one. And don't get me wrong, I love Santana, but does he project to get better and better? You really want JC having Santana and check down as his options while he develops?

Could you please explain to me what some smart football moves would be? And please try to include anything you can come up with that doesn't include DL.
GTripp thinks WRs are completely worthless.

the problem is, when you have a QB-WR combo, weak WRs can bottleneck your offense just like a weak QB can bottleneck your offense. having a WR that can beat double coverage helps everyone, including the oline (if the qb knows how to checkdown vs the blitz properly) and the other skill guys (less coverage on other receivers, more room for runners). it's hard to argue against having too many weapons in any way other than relative impact of taking a DL guy instead. BUT, if this is really our QB of the future, making sure the WRs aren't holding him back could be pretty important.

I really wouldn't be too upset about taking CJ. I think he'll have an anquan boldin type impact.
