We must draft OL early!

We may not have had much luck drafting receivers in the first round over the last 10 or so years (insert Michael Westbrook here) but I think these 3 receivers are going to be very good.

If we use our first pick on a WR I will be disappointed. WRs with size and ability can be found later in the draft as evident in the link above.

Granted, this is the extreme case in which it pans out, the Skins should be able to grab a tall, system compatiable, receiver later in the draft, if it is so necessary.

I feel using our 1st pick on a WR would poorly start out our most significant draft in the past 5 years.

I completely agree, I'm completely against the idea of drafting a WR in 1st rd.. There are plenty of WRs later in late drafts; beside all WRs who are projected to be 1st rder - they weren't all hyped like last yr with Calvin Johnson.. And yet look what happened to him last season..

Agreed. Offensive line must be addressed first. We could pick up some WR like Marcus Monk in round 3(I heard his stock is rising).
