Since Jeff Fisher became coach in 1994 they have taken 1 WR in the 1st round (Kevin Dyson, 1998) and 1 WR in the 2nd round (Tyrone Calico, 2003).
Everyone cried for them to take a WR last year too. They then went 13-3 and got beat in the playoffs mostly because Chris Johnson got hurt.
They just signed Nate Washington to start opposite Justin Gage, and Lavelle Hawkins is a promising slot man - that's enough for a run-based team that likes to feature the tight end in the passing game. They might sign or draft 1 more but it's not nearly their biggest need.
Their biggest need by far is CB - where Harper will be 35 next September, and last year's #3 and #4 corners left in free agency, and then it's DE - where Vanden Bosch and Kearse are both on the wrong side of 30 and in the last year of their contract.
