Have I mentioned yet how excited I am for our WR's to get paired together again now that Parker is out of the box dominant and Williams will be a year smarter/better?
Dude a 4th pick overall WR just got a ring literally 3 days ago.
Your original point:with a different team than drafted him 4th overall.
if you want to sign a talented WR who didn’t work out on another team, then I’m ok with that.
Not using draft resources is the basis of this whole opinion.
He’s in the same group as Placico Burress with Giants and Alshon Jeffrey with the Eagles.
helping a team get over the jump vs. using first round picks are two different circumstances.
We don’t even have a franchise QB, starting RB, backup RB, let alone a single OL any other team would want.
Not even mentioning the defensive needs.
but ya, WRs are the way to rebuild. Lol. When it’s already your strength.
dig that hole at least 1” taller than you.
The only reason I responded is because you called other people names in the same post you made this false statement. You should thank the mods for editing your post BTW. All you've been doing since then is backpedal and dig a hole...Year after year the star WRs drafted high are nowhere to be found in the postseason.
WRs just don’t matter when compared to every other position except K and Punter.

Keep digging dude, keep digging... First 5 WRs taken in the last draft made the playoffs...I continue to cite specific examples in draft history where taking WRs early are failures despite the individual talent of that player.
where are the examples of teams drafting WRs and being happy with the post season impact?
again, outside of the Colts and Rams. Who again, were rife with hall of famers.
history says stay away from the position in the first round.

edit: This is my last comment in this specific discussion... Feel free to argue with youself going foward...
So Tannehill leading the league in multiple statistical categories was because of himself and/or Derrick Henry only? Had nothing to do with having a 1k 8TD rookie WR?Lol.
Nothing but MVPs and Hall of famers at QB.
But ya, obviously Deebo Samuel was the reason SF reached new heights.
AJ Brown and the Titans are why we should use a first on the position. Ok got it.

Again, what a weird take.
Sure. But who goes in when one of them gets hurt lets go grab another in this WR loaded draft. Lord forbid we have too many great WRs
Most people didn't think we needed to invest in WRs the year we used a 2nd rounder on Landry either and that was a steal. Sometimes you've got to take advantage of what's available in each draft and this draft is supposedly LOADED with WRs. Don't ignore what the opportunity cost brings you. Say you take a WR which makes Devante Parker's salary obsolete, so instead of paying him for a big extension, you get to use that big extension on a different position you deem more valuable than a WR, all while you've got your new WR on the cheap for years.Of course it did, that’s why second round WRs are such a better value than first rounders. If we’re gonna talk about Tennessee why not mention Corey Davis too?
we’re comparing complete teams to those completely bare of talent, outside of the WR position.
if you want to rebuild the roster and look at that position down the road, fine, that makes sense.
I really can’t believe ANYONE thinks we need to invest in WRs right now.
Also, as i pointed out in a different discussion, there are only 10 PS spots, and besides being developmental, they are also training tools to simulate opponents during practice.Yeah, the problem is you cannot just draft a guy and "stash" him in the minors. He either makes the team, gets cut or goes on the PS. They are so deep at WR I'm not sure who that drafted player beats out, even if they keep six.
