Really hoping they can find a Draft pick of similar quality to Rashee Rice. Can't afford more busts like Skyy Moore & Kadarius Toney. It would be nice to find an inexpensive veteran with reliable hands & route running as well.

2nd rounders are coin-flips.
For every Rice, you'll get a Moore. No matter how good a GM you are, you're really looking at 50/50 odds if you're looking at taking a WR in the 2nd round. And if you're taking one in the 1st from this class...well you're really looking at 2nd round caliber guys for the most part past Brian Johnson Jr, IMO. Some folks would put Franklin in that 1st round group, some Mitchell, others even Worthy.
But I think the fact that you see that kind of variance in opinion says plenty. It says at that point, NONE of them are true 'first round grade' caliber prospects.
Which is to say we better NOT be in a situation where 'we can't afford another Skyy Moore' because there's a pretty solid chance that's what we get. That's just the draft, fellas.
It's why you just gotta keep getting your shots up. Some will hit, others won't. Over a long enough timeline, we'll be fine.
