At this point it seems inevitable that he's going to be catching passes from Drake Maye.

To keep it relevant to the draft how does this impact what we do this week?

I think we can rule out WR on day 1 for certain.

I agree. Unless Boutte's part of the deal, you have to think Boutte, Williams, Hollins and Pop are all serviceable as no 3 candidates.
 
I would think the likelihood of a trade back to collect future picks also seems much higher.
 
I would already be on the phone with Arizona.
I'm sure they were a couple of weeks ago and also with anyone else (Jets maybe).

If Simpson falls, it seems a good bet to trade a 2nd and 4th or 5th to jump up and select Simpson in the 1st for the 5 year contract.
 
Does it also rule out a receiving TE early?

I think it's all smoke. I don't foresee Brown coming here.

If the guy is whining because he's getting a 24% target share instead of 28%, what's going to happen if that drops to 20% with the Pats? Which is what Diggs saw.

I don't think "receiving" TE has even been on their board. TEs who can't block aren't going to fit in the smash-mouth offense they're trying to build.
