Assuming he pans out and if there’s a position that just screams high bust rate it’s QB then WR imo. You’ve got 3 years of top 3 WRs under contract with Addison’s 5th year option. Again you force Ds to play two deep. You control the game with the chess pieces on the board. The only downside is WR3 last year played 51% of the snaps. It’s an interesting possibility.

It would be an interesting option and give KOC all kinds of chess pieces to play with and create mismatches. Also depth and insurance at a premium position. Maybe we utilize more 3 wide receiver sets this year since we have zero at TE behind Hockenson who is an actual receiving threat. More Egbuka/McMillan on the field and less Josh Oliver is a win in my book. Drafting a receiver early won't happen for us, but it's an interesting option to think about

I don't mind taking a WR somewhere. Just probably not with our first pick. As you so correctly point out, WRs bust a lot. What if he misses? What if he's Reagor or Ruggs or Davis or Treadwell? Missing on a player who fills a need is bad enough, but if you miss on a player who doesn't, man that's a hard pill. I'll roll with Speedy and Moore and take a shot on a high-upside UDFA and feel pretty good about it.

One of the reasons I like Savion is you can really stress a D. His skillset is so different from what we currently have. Or at least it’s wrapped in a much bigger package than Moore. 

You could Aaron Hernandez him for a game and rush him 25 games and he’ll give you 100+ easy. Want to Wildcat in the deep RedZone, you’ve got a plus sized QB. Tunnel screen? Jet sweep? He’s got hands good enough to snatch a ball low and behind him with ease. Excellent at contested passes. You just have to get him to concentrate. McCardell maxes him out. I guarantee he could be a weapon in the right hands.

Or if you hit on that receiver, you recreate the new greatest show on turf with KOC playing Mike Martz and McCarthy as the trigger man. That's an appealing possibility to me. If you can add a playmaker that takes this offense to the next level...giddy up. Also why I'm still firmly in the "let's draft a running back" camp.

The WR I want is Jaylin Noel. I think he's a guy that will punish teams deep and also offer a quick passing game we've been missing.

Only downside is that I think he overlaps too much with Addison. He's got so much speed and quickness.
