I made an analogy earlier that some didn't like where I compared our D line situation last year to the wr situation this year. In a nutshell, given the resources & cap $ we have, I think the front office will only draft a wr early if they feel strongly about one.

I don't see them using an early pick just because there's a need. Last year, d line was an area of need but they thought Landry was a far better player than Okoye, Adams et al.

I see a similar approach to wr this year. If there's not a good one on the board early that they like a lot, I see them only using late picks or signing undrafted free agents. In the end I won't be surprised if there's little to no difference in our wr corps. I would hope they see promise in a guy in the 2nd or 3rd rounds, e.g. Jordy Nelson, but it sounds like Vinny will have to be really sold before he uses a pick that high, and Blache has stated his desire to build through the draft.

you make some good points.

i will be disappointed if there is little to no change in our receiving corps though. i actually like all our receivers, paricularly our top 2. but we got piss-poor production out of the unit as a whole last year. i think it would be irresponsible to not have any legit competition at training camp.

4 total touchdowns from your top 2 receivers is (or, at least, should be) unacceptable.
