For those wanting a WR in the 1st round.....WHY?

eazyb81 · 04-22-2005, 05:02 PM

Over the last 3 years, our offense has finished 1st, 1st, and 2nd in the league in scoring. During that timespan we have never had great or even above average wide receivers, yet we still have no trouble scoring. Over that same timespan, our defense has been one of the very worst in the league. Based on that, why do some people on here say we need a WR? What indications are there that our offense needs a WR this year? No matter what happens, our #1 one will be Priest/LJ and #2 will be Gonzo....I honestly believe a WR drafted in the 1st round would not be happy being in our offense. On the flipside, we have made some great defensive additions this offseason, but we still aren't going to be confused with the 85 Bears. So, what's the deal? For those lobbying for a WR, explain your position, because I don't get it.
