[QUOTE="McKnowledge, post: 954384, member: 11543"] Good post. We share similar opinions. I think you have to double dip at the WR well. This draft is really well balanced, with the exception of "top tier" QB talent. I think the Packers need to diversify their WR room. The offense consisting of QB and pass catchers should operate like a starting five unit for basketball. Aaron Rodgers is the point guard. Gotta have a WR1 as your shooting guard, this position must generate points either through the air or on the ground. SF and PF should do the dirty work, their production. These receivers offer speed, route running, YAC, big plays, and 50/50 winners. A combo of Olave and Williams I can agree with multiple arguments made for the construction of the WR corps. However, I am of the strong opinion; that GB [B][I]must[/I] [/B]use 2 of the first 4 picks and to select a WR. The WR depth is above average in this draft. Versatility is key for the WR corps. GB needs Randy Moss and a Chris Carter; a Jamar Chase and a Tee Higgins; a Jerry Rice and a John Taylor. These variations have different components...FA/Drafted, Drafted/Drafted, etc. [B][I]I'm also greedy. [/I][/B] Hell, why not target 2 vets for specific needs/roles [B][I]and [/I][/B]draft 2 WRs with the first four picks? Give AR12 as many weapons as possible and let him play point god? My 2cents? Sign Sammy Watkins to an incentive laden 3yr/12M deal. Second, take a look at signing Marcus Johnson, he looked pretty good last year with the Titans. Johnson could be had for a 2yr/6M deal with incentives built in expanding the final total. Once the draft rolls around, if the draft picks remain in place, go draft Olave and Burks, or Williams and Burks, or Olave and Williams. Or if bold, create a package, and jump up to get London (USC) or Garret Wilson (Ohio State). Then, use a later pick on another WR...Alec Pierce? Now, you have a diverse WR corp, the FA vets leave after two seasons, which would perfectly align with the ascension of the young receivers. Naturally, receivers like Lazard, Cobb, and Amari Rogers fill out the depth. [/QUOTE]
