Ranking WRs is so subjective and especially for rookies.  I think Coker, Legette, and Sanders are solid options that I expect to be much improved in year 2.  Go grab another vet WR in free agency and let's let the young guys eat.  No way are our offensive weapons in the bottom 5.  Sorry, but I don't agree with this.  

Add A.T to the equation also. Maybe old, but still ballin.

I don't think anyone would argue about the potential of XL, Coker and Sanders.  We're in the bottom because we have very young weapons.  The entire offense is a work in progress so I don't put very much stock in where our receiving core ranks. 

What I do care about is projecting going forward but that is much more subjective.  I think Coker is going to be somewhere between Moose and Smitty.  I still see a ton of upside with XL and the team is still trying to figure out how best to use him.  Adam T. is just a smooth vet and we we definitely need that.

It took a bit for Sanders to get going and when it looked like he was really showing out, he got injured.  He's a guy who looks like he's really putting in the work but still too early to tell how big of a weapon he could be for Bryce but he's shown enough to be a starter.

Do we need a #1 WR?  Of course but I don't know that he isn't already on the team.  I wouldn't be mad if we draft one in the first round because it's all about the best that's available and I mean that literally.  What positions can we upgrade and what are we passing over if we do take a WR in the first.

I feel comfortable with a number of options be it trading for a #1 WR, drafting one in the 1st round or rolling with what we have (with some added depth, a la Moore).  Any of those options allow us to compete and progress towards becoming a winning organization year in and year out.
