Yeah I think none of us would deny that the #2 WR is a significant need for us that still hasn't been resolved yet.

Although we need to acknowledge the situation the team is in - there weren't ample of opportunities for us to find one. It turned out that we did make efforts to sign Alec Pierce before he resigned with Colts (I apologize to whoever said that we did try when the FA opened but I didn't believe it). They also tried to sign Doubs before he decided to sign with Patriots. They did draft Williams, who supposedly is NFL ready. The cards simply aren't there and AP did the right thing by not trying to force it, or otherwise we likely would have to give up future capitals. The Chig signing definitely will help as he will force the defense to pay attention to him on all plays.

I agree with Matty - I think it's going to turn into a committee thing this year. We will be screwed if McLaurin misses some games tho.
