Funny. If I'm not mistaken, we built a dynasty on second/third receivers. Troy Brown, David Givens, David Patten. Deion Branch was the only guy who you could make an argument was a premier receiver, and he didn't really show that in Seattle this year. Sure, the Colts won the Super Bowl with Reggie Wayne and Marvin Harrison, but the Chargers had Keenan McCardell and Eric Parker... it's clearly not a necessity.
We also drafted our impact receiver last year. His name's Chad Jackson. You may have heard of him? Unfortunately he is hurt now, and may never develop into what he could have, but you never know. Maybe we should see how that turns out instead of blowing a first day draft pick on a receiver again. Welker is a young, but proven commodity who is a great special teams player and caught 67 passes last year. That would have made him the top receiver on the Patriots.
If what you are saying is true then what was the problem with the WR's last year?
And when I say impact receiver I don't mean 1200+ yard guy I mean 900-1000 yard guy.
