[QUOTE="Thirteen Below, post: 1032231, member: 18006"] Everyone has their own personal opinions, and everyone has different levels of confidence in various draft evaluators, and those evaluations and opinions never reflect exactly how the draft will fall. But to the extent you trust PFF, they listed 22 WRs among their Top 100 last time I checked. Of the other sources, I've seen several name 20-23 WRs at various times in the last couple of weeks, and as of this past weekend, CBS Sports, Pro Football Network, and the Mock Draft Database were all at about 18-20. It would have been more conservative to say "almost 25%" or stick with "4 out of 5", but I think the point remains - with 11 picks to work with, there's a pretty high likelihood that at some point, Gute's going to be looking at a WR being his BPA at that spot. Possibly more than once. And yeah - that puts him in a position of advantage for turning those 11 picks into 12 or 13. Because anywhere from 8-11 of those WRs are projected for the approximate range where we have 4 Day Two picks, and chances are excellent that when we're up, some other team will want Roman Wilson, or Troy Franklin, or Ricky Pearsall badly enough to make a deal. Just because this draft is rich in wide receivers doesn't mean we have to [I]draft [/I]one of them to make our team better; we can use our depth at the position as leverage to get a good player at a position of greater need. Edit: damn; Pro Football Network, not [I]NFL [/I]Network. :confused: [/QUOTE]
