Why should we spend in upwards of 5-7 million per year on a receiver if we can draft one and possibly get the same quality of player for under a million per year for 4 years?
That's a legit question...especially when Alex Smiths comfort zone hasn't really been throwing outside the numbers to the wideouts.
I guess after locking Bowe up to that huge deal and seeing him underproduce makes me much ather spend that kind of coin on a huge upgrade at safety.
After all, the offense scored 44 in the playoffs with the weapons we have on offense, but we have nothing after Berry at safety and even he isn't exactly a top itch coverage safety at this point.
I think that's a lot more cost effecient.

I'd say this is why Maclin is the obvious fit, because he'll likely come cheaper.
I'd imagine they'll add a WR in FA, and probably draft one.
