If WR is not even good to draft to 20 I would not even bother to draft one in round one perhaps even round 2 because it's same crap you have on roster now and nothing worth being a #1 WR
Depends how the board falls. Smith-Njigba Is probably the best example for now. He’s probably 10-20 but if he falls do you grab him based on your board. That’s the subjective part. And if Johnson falls to 15 or so (doubtful) do you jump. Same with the subjective narrative
If picking top 10 you better be getting a playmaker a meh guy is something you draft in the 20s
Assuming you’re top 10 yes, but if you have Addison and /or Smith-Njigba on your board at 11-15 or so and Johnson is gone that’s not an easy call. Addison, while not a Watson clone he’s close, body of work for Smith-Njigba is limited. And then what’s your other needs. Gets to be part roster management
Unless this is looking like a stud WR I would rather go after a DL or OL to me no studs at WR this year just projects to work on with a high ceiling and already have that in Watson.
Any WR you draft is a project to some extent. It’s historically a bigger learning curve. A guy like Chase is an outlier since he was in theory running a NFL style with Joe Brady. Just look at the 2022 draft. London went 8, Wilson 10 , Olave 11. At one point they had that “stud” title
Any of those 4 are likely better then the WR in 2023 draft. It's a poor year for WR and OL at least in 1st round. GB gets a high pick I know fans will not like it but a defensive player might be the best choice.
Disagree. Johnson or Addison are both similar. Addison more Wilson and Johnson is to me better than London. Smith-Njigba is probably similar to Wilson but the body of work is a bit limited
Sounds like a Packer pick a guy who's iffy to be able to play tackle but could still play the spot if needed but likely better fits as a guard.
