No one in our wr corp can do that even if ramsey is throwing the ball accurately on a consistent basis. Some may be afraid of our recent history of selecting wrs with first round picks but that doesn't hide the fact that we need a player that is a liable downfield threat opposite of coles and gardner, mccants, and jacobs just ain't up to snuff at this point in their careers. We could probably even trade down a little and still get edwards as well as address both the offensive and defensive lines(especially with my boy Chris Canty being a possible late first/early second day steal after his injury.)

Well, taking Taylor Jacobs as an example. If he's not up to snuff yet at this point in his NFL career, how would a player still in college be more ready?
