Default Do we still need another receiver?

I was just thinking, we have David Patten, Taylor Jacobs and maybe Santana Moss... do we really need to sign a FA or draft one in the first round? I dunno about you guys, but our potential (potential cuz of coles) receiving core doesn't look too shabby at all. Ofcourse that's all on paper but still, maybe we could trade down now and draft a DE or sign a FA. Last year springs led the team in sacks and I find that kind of sad. The guy who is supposed to be covering receivers gets more sacks then the guy's who job it is to get sacks... Just a thought.

I still think we need one more pass catcher, whether that be a WR like Williamson or a TE in Miller or Alex Smith. If we get Moss though I would take a look at trading down for Clayton.

of course reciever is still the pressing need LC wants out.
OK Moss never caught alot of balls still unproven.
Patten serviceable reciever who is a great pickup but dont be surprised if he dosent light up the league.
Jacobs is connected with the dirtyest word in football "POTENTIAL".
Thrash proved he couldnt be a number one.
so while we now have serious depth at the WR position we still need to seriously look to upgrade.

Hard question to answer at this point. I'm somewhat inclined to say no. I think Jacobs is the biggest variable. I also feel we may need more size at the position. However, Moss & Patten can create separation which we lacked last year. This, along with their good hands, will provide a substantial upgrade from last season. However, I really drool at this unit with getting a stud with that #9 pick.

Yes, even if Coles stays, he'll be dealt with in a year. And who knows how hard he will play anyways? I would like options at Wideout.

If Coles is traded for Moss and Moss is signed to a long term deal I see us using #9 to go after either Heath Miller or perhaps Defensive End.

If not then I still say go after Mike Williams or Williamson at #9 because Coles most likely will be gone next year.

i say just trade coles and the #9 for Mike Williams, that way everybody on here will be happy, sure it could be used elsewhere and sure there probably won't be any WR worth the #9 pick available when we are on the clock, and we could use the pick for a pass rusher, or we could trade down and get more picks to add depth, but screw it. This takes care of everybodies needs. We might be able to get a seventh round pick on top of it too.

I would be fine with Moss, Patten, Jacobs and Thrash as our WR's.

Maybe a DE and a MLB via draft

to tell you the truth i am perfectly happy going into the season with the team we have now with the addition of Jansen and raybach portis may get 2000 yds next season I could careless who the recievers are Coles and Gardner are far better then any Ravens WR and Ramsey better then Boller may point is Lewis was able to run for 2000 with no passing attack

with no injuries and Buges coaching the "dirtbags" up we will have one hell of an O-line

there are a few positions I wouldnt mind suring up dont get me wrong like if we were to get rid of Coles and Gardner add Williams or Williamson through the draft and I would like to see some LB's drafted for special teams and depending on the smoot situation a cb

one other thing is I see alot of people mention they want TE well how about Pollard who was relesed by the colts I think he would fit perfect in this Offense

right now we have going into this season is (no receiver needed):
1. Gardner
2. Coles
3. Dmac
4. Thrash
5. Jacobs
6. Patten
but really it might end up soon being like this (1 or 2 receivers needed):
1. Dmac
2. Thrash
3. Jacobs
4. Patten
and possibly just these few (2 or 3 receivers needed):
1. Thrash
2. Jacobs
3. Patten
To be safe, I would say yes we could use another receiver.

Yes we still need another WR. I still want to draft a WR early. Patten is only a short term solution, and I don't want to get stuck in this situation again in 2 years. And it would be nice to grow a new #1 here instead of having to pick one up as a FA in a couple of years.

for tight end we need either a blocker to replace Rasby or a pass catcher to upgrade over Robert Royal, or a guy who can do both. i'd be happy with a blocker to replace Rasby. a big guy who can block, but whom no one expects to be the next tony gonzales, would be cheap.
