We did not find a single WR in the draft in 5 years worth keeping. Not a WR1. Not a WR2. Not even a situational WR. At one point Pringle was our WR2 not because of injury but because he was the best we had.
Sorry but I think you’re really sugarcoating our WR room. We did a very poor job drafting WRs. Period.

Because we didn't need to find a #1 WR. We had 2 of them.
I think your expectations for what a WR2 and 3 should be are wrong. Most 3 and 4 WR's aren't worth keeping and end up signing 1 year cheap deals in other places because teams draft cheap mid round WR's to replace them.
Like we did with Mecole, like the Giants have done in regards to Richie James and on and on.
The best offenses. Ok. Lets lay them out here. The best offenses such as...the Bengals? Sure, they drafted 2 first round WR's, one being in the top 5.
Mecole Hardman was a 2nd round pick that ended up being a good player for the Chiefs. No he didn't develop into a top flight WR, but for what he was and what we needed...yeah.
