Adding another rookie WR isn't high on my priority list.
Maybe not high in the draft, but they should keep adding them every draft until they hit upon that Marques Colston or Brandon Marshall. And then keep drafting them every year. That's just my preference though.
But we'll never know if we have that type in our fold if we just keep drafting WRs to take time from the guys we already have, at some point you have to stop drafting projects and give time to the guys you got. Two of our guys are rookies, 2 are second year men and the other only has 3. Like I've said before, playing musical chairs with positions is just as harmful as having crap players.
If you keep giving up on guys and not giving them time to grow and develop you're hindering your team.
I'm all about competition though. Keep pitting guys against each other until someone (like the two guys I mentioned) just blows everyone else's doors off. If we ever get to the point where we're like the Packers, who draft and groom their own receivers to use forever, then I might rethink the strategy. But I don't think we're set at the position in any way right now.
I don't think we're in the place to be holding receiver competitions either. We need production from our guys now, not more project WRs that go through rookie jitters and might not pan out, thus taking spots away from other players on the roster.
Especially with all our gaping holes, with no RB to speak of, a big gaping hole at RT with Saffold questionable of ever being healthy, an express need for a MLB and egregious other holes I don't think the Rams are in the position to be spending any picks on receivers.
