I would consider another reciever that could be a stud at returning kicks, seems like this guy doesn't have the speed to do that.

I still think Jordy Nelson can and will be a very effective number 2 receiver in the NFL. WR is our deepest position, I don't think we need anybody else. Barnes would come in and be our 5th receiver. How often did you see Swain or the other 5th receiver after Swain got hurt in on offense? Pretty much never. No need to burn a draft pick on this position.

We don't need another receiver, if he can't be a percy harvin type, that will do some wildcat, be a quick threat, and return punts and kicks.

We have Greg Jennings, Donald Driver, James Jones, Jordy Nelson, and Jermichael Finley, that a lot of times lines up as wide receiver.

Actually, we don't need another receiver at all. We need a pr/kr and a RB that can burn teams and catch the ball out of the back field. But WR? no.

If we draft another receiver it has to be a Harvin type that can return kicks, take wildcat snaps, and dabble at the running back position. Mardy Gilyard makes sense in that role. We're already loaded with traditional receivers.

I will admit I really want Barnes. I think its completely reasonable to take him in the 5th round but I know we don't NEED Barnes but I believe he would be a steal in the 5th. I just wanted to throw that out there. I want Gilyard too. I want a lot of guys.

No telling what TT will do. For all we know.........he could pick up Golden Tate in the 2nd round. That wouldn't be a horrible thing although we have other needs.
