There is enough smoke that the interest continued in the draft. There was genuine interest in guys like Dotson and Jameson Williams. Theres enough smoke to suggest they were sincerely asking about obj and DJ moore. WR and pass rusher are the 2 positions we kept hearing about. In both instances they chose not to overbid.
I'm very good with it. I'm good with moving on from Tyreek and not trading the moon for DJ Moore. I actually feel like after we moved on from Tyreek this was supposed to be a competitive rebuild year. So yeah I think they're more than happy. But being happy isnt the same as being content. maybe their priorities have changed but their continued interest in the WR shows they likely aren't done with it

Having interest in improving at WR and having the competence to do so are two entirely different things. Aside from taking a long shot on a freak of nature in the 5th round this franchise under Reid and Dorsey/Veach has shown in the pst decade that the ceiling for WRs they scout is Mecole Hardman. I have no doubt they’d love to find a star WR, but I do doubt their capability of finding one considering their consistent history of taking the wrong guys there. I’d rather them focus on building out the defense into a top unit (finally) over taking another nobody like Skyy Moore.
