[QUOTE="tynimiller, post: 1035693, member: 6578"] To be fair Gute and Co have been and even TT before him been tossing numerous darts at WR room almost constantly either through draft, lower end FA or both. I don't think we got any better or worse personally and truly Toure and Dubose I woulnd't label as hits overall but given the investment both aren't busts for sure...Dubose is likely in his last year in GB unless PS saves him...Toure is on life support for a spot IMO vs Melton and Heath.....and while Wicks and Reed looked nasty good as rookies - so did MVS (utterly different type of WR but still). Additional separate thoughts... Fact is there are two approaches to room building....focus on the TOP shelf and make sure you got that...or build up ALL the shelves below the top shelf. You rarely have the capital and the draft pick equity to just do both approaches without massive sacrifices elsewhere. When we had Adams in his premiere prime...I get why they didn't swing hard at WR....albeit after 2019 in the 2020 draft I can still remember screaming with joy when we traded up at what I assumed was a Michael Pittman selection.... Overall the draft is a gamble...one which only hindsight makes someone look like a genius or a bafoon to far too many folks that forget the prospect process and roster building as a whole is not Madden. As much as Reed, Wicks and Heath all look like similar hits to the Watson, Doubs, Toure year....we still have zero clue how it is going to play out. MVS had 1,033 yards after just two seasons (32 games)...Doubs 1,099 (30 games)....Watson 1,033 (23 games).....a lot can be learned in that third year for a guy.... [/QUOTE]
