[QUOTE="DoURant, post: 954287, member: 12388"] If there ever was a year for the Packers to draft a WR in the 1st Rd.... obviously this is the year. A case could definitely be made to draft 2 of the top 5 WR's in the 1st rd., hoping to hit gold with one, and the motherload, if you nail both picks, which would set up the receiving core for years. In all honesty, I see at least 1 of the 1st rd picks on OL or DL, and most likely OL. (Departures of Turner, Patrick, plus Big E is going to miss some time, plus the Jarran Reed signing makes DL less urgent) As for my WR preferences, I'm shading my #1 toward Burks, (I like his size, and YAC ability) My #2 guy is Olave, as they need someone to take the top off, replacing MVS... plus he just runs great routes. I would be perfectly fine drafting either one in the 1st, and if they somehow went against all Packers drafting precedent, and ended up drafting both.... WHOA NELLY!!! When it comes to FA WR's, I wouldn't mind them picking up a vet like TY Hilton, I think he could still be a great #2 WR option, should come fairly cheap, and I think he could be a guy Aaron would trust. I don't want them to trade any of the picks they received in the Adams trade for a veteran, I think it would be too steep a price, and definitely not DK Metcalf, as his next contract is going to be big $$$$.
