Add a Veteran WR?

[MTK]

So far today we're talking about adding a veteran WR and trading Cooley for Marshall. I feel like we've already forgotten about the 2009 season. Offensive line anyone?

Anything other than the o-line at this point is a diversion form the reality of need. There are other needs, but O-line is the most pressing and WAD should hold first priority.

I'm not convinced this coaching staff got the maximum from our young receivers for whatever the reasons. There's more to be gained with the continued development of our younger players.

Thank you. I have no problem trading Cooley for picks but NO MORE RECEIVERS. We have Moss, Thomas, Kelly, Cooley, Davis, Yoder... enough weapons for now. We need LINEMEN.

How about forgetting about the 2008 season and our OLine issues then. Ive screamed head off about Oline especially last offseason, and I think that area will be address with possibly 3 new starters. BUT Shanny, if hired, is going to want a WR. ARE is gone, so we will have a need to add someone. We can still develop our young guys...please they need some developing b/c so far not that great....Look the whole freakin offense is absolutely horrible..period, they suck dont they? We are going to be changing a whole lot and rightfully so on the offense side of the ball. Yes we will add multiple Olineman, and we do need a RB as well...but I think if Shanny is here and ARE is most likely gone, we have a WR spot and I say add a vet there...we dont have to break the bank, no draft picks...If Marshall is availible for like Cooley or Laron we should listen....

Thank you for keeping folks on the track, Matty.

The WRs are not great but they are not the weakest link on the offense by a LONG shot...
