So, although we won the Super Bowl, we clearly need to upgrade the wide receiver room. But we shouldn’t spend too much money. Also, we shouldn’t rely on just who we can draft, so we need to get somebody in free agency. We should basically get whoever is cheapest. Candidates mentioned that I like include Brown, Samuels, and Ridley. If they’re too expensive, the next tier should include Money, Osburn and Boyd. If everyone’s too expensive, I guess we stick with Hardman, but the point that several of you made is right on: he might be enough for what we need for a number 3 receiver, but if one of the top receivers gets injured, he doesn’t have the upside to replace them. My preference is we get Samuels and then a burner in the draft.
If we can’t get a number 1 pick for Sneed I wonder if we can afford to keep him. If we can we should. If we can get a number one, then we can get both a tackle and a good receiver in the draft using two number one picks.
