I just think most people want a "real" number 1. Moss and Armstrong are both very good role players at this point. A strong # 1 (I am thinking of Calvin Johnson, VJax, SRice type player) would make a strong WR corps, consisting of new #1, Moss, Armstrong, and Banks, with Austin in reserves.

True but when I think of priorities with this team, upgrading the interior of the line, getting our qb of the future, and fixing the defense would all come before getting an elite wideout. Santana is not necessarily elite anymore but he is still a very dependable wideout. I haven't seen him drop many of those wide open passes like he had on Sunday over the years.

I would try for an elite wideout in FA not the draft. Heck maybe Kelly with a full year of rehab and strengthening can come in and be "the guy". I agree that we have a lot of priorities, glad I'm not the one deciding where to start.

If there is an elite wideout in FA I'd look into it, but I wouldn't get into a bidding war if there was a lot of other suitors. I too want to see what we have with Kelly, I just feel like there's a lot of unknowns at the position right now with Kelly, Austin, and Banks. People talk a lot about putting Banks in more of a playmaking role on offense, but what if the staff already tried that and determined his route running or hands needs a lot of work? People tend to forget the coaches spend all of their time working with the players, whether it be on the field, or in the film room. Maybe he hasn't been consistent enough in practice to warrant getting more pt on offense.
