If we snagged Hackett, IMO that would open the door to go after a CB or D-lineman in the first round.

Between Moss, ARE, and Cooley we have a mountain of money tied up in pass catchers. Hackett is a sound move. Like you said Matty, he's big, young, and knows the offense and Zorn. And he went to the same high school as Bill & Ted- San Dimas High School football rules!!
I would say no to that too.

I would feel ok with a WR corps of something like Moss, Hackett, Randle El, Mix, and Espy.

I agree, although I'd like to see Caldwell get a chance to compete for a roster spot too. I know there are a lot of Espy fans around here, but Caldwell has more experience and polish. I hope Mix works his ass off in OTAs and gets together for some offseason workouts with Cambpell. The guy is 6-5 235lbs. How fun would it be to see him, well, in the mix?

Caldwell might not be back due to injury concerns, something about chronic knee problems.
