Boyd lined up with 2 stud WR getting all the coverage and still wasn't impressive. I don't understand why everyone keeps talking about this guy he's an average at best WR 3.
Higgins is better than Boyd but also inconsistent and likely benefitting from Chase getting the top coverage guys. Think AB and JuJu after AB left Juju was never the same.
Ridley has talent but the guy is a total liability. Had to leave the league to get his mental health in order. No thanks
Marquis Brown is Jekyll and Hyde, similar to Harris but at WR. Flashes greatness 20% of the time.
Pass
Better off rolling the dice in the draft.
With our record of drafting "decently" with WRs I agree, try to draft a few. When I say we draft WRs "decently" I mean "decently." I know all the media praises our drafting genius on WRs but it's not totally true. Most of that reputation was based on when Ben was QB; he made most WRs seem better than they were. The one, true drafting WR genius was AB; a 6th rounder for one of the very best WRs in the NFL. THAT was true excellence, but other than him we've done "OK." Ben made WRs better.
- Pickens - 2nd round. Incredible talent, still waiting for breakout season.
- Austin - 4th. Incredible speed, waiting for production.
- Claypool - 2nd. Bust we "Kahned" Chicago to save the pick via trade for JPJ.
- DJ - 3rd. Had holes in his game, just traded.
- Washington - 2nd. Never developed.
- JuJu - 2nd. Mostly solid WR, much better with AB and Ben.
- Ayers - 7th. No.
- Coates - 3rd. Ben created, then nothing without him.
- Bryant - 4th. See above.
- Wheaton 3rd. Never amounted to much.
- Justin Brown - 6th. Nothing.
- Clemons - 7th. No.
- Sanders - 3rd. Solid. Went on to succeed on other teams.
- AB - 6th. The one big one.
- Wallace - 3rd. Good deep ball WR, Ben mostly created.
- Sweed - 2nd. Everyone's favorite whipping boy draft bust.
- Baker. No.
- Holmes 1st. Good pick, won a SB with his play.

- Gibson - 4th. No.
- Randel El - 2nd. Good enough.
