I'd use one of our later round picks on a WR, and one on a RB, provided there are appropriate players worth taking at those selections.

There are areas of the team that can only be properly judged after being properly coached, and WR is one of them. We already have what many feel is a fairly talented trio of young WR's who with proper guidance, work ethic and motivation can/will mature into a formidable group. This coaching staff is committed to making the players we have perform better. I'm content to witness the results of that committment.

Sometimes we're too quick to write off players until they have had ample opportunity to reach their maximum potential. Keenan McKardell will do a much better job with our young receivers than did Stan Hixon.
