Exactly.
This board's collective obsession with big WRs who simply wouldn't get much consideration in an Andy Reid offense is mind-blowing. You'd think people would eventually get it that he just doesn't go for 6'4" 215 lb WRs that run well in a straight line but have little agility to make the sharp cuts he wants nor the stamina to continually move around formations and vary their routes. It's just not what the WCO focuses on.
He's not signing Mike Williams, Michael Thomas, trading for Tee Higgins, and so forth for a reason. He's also not going to focus his draft efforts on guys who follow the same profile. Leggett is big and fast in a straight line. So is Thomas Jr, Mitchell, and Coleman. While he might go for those guys, I'd say he's going to prefer the guys like Worthy, Franklin, McConkey, Corley, Wilson, Burton, Pearsall, Thrash, etc. Guys that are a bit more crisp in and out of route breaks and will be able to run all day.
