With Graham gone and another year onto Colston who appeared to lose a step last year albeit while still being productive, which veteran WR do you guys want?

Kenny Britt--My pick, still posses #1WR ability & size if he can keep his head straight, and managed nearly 50rec for 700+ yards from the 3rd & 2nd string QB's in St. Louis so that makes me think with Brees throwing the ball to him he could be very productive

Michael Crabtree--former 1st rd pick, has had a few decent seasons and shows flashes all while never having only Alex Smith & Colin Kaepernack throwing the ball to him, I also think he could thrive here

Dwayne Bowe--Not what he once was but still has talent, and while he failed to get a TD catch last year and some of that was his fault some of the blame has to get put on the OC as well as the QB

Stevie Johnson--another former #1WR that could still produce

Any others any of you have your eye on?

None of those unless they play for free.

They all have inherent problems with their attitude and are past their prime

Out of that list, easily Crabtree.

Britt will re-sign with the Rams



Crabtree will likely go to some shitty team chasing money, but I would like to have him

None of them should command too much money either, but if they would then we would no doubt pass on them

Woudln't mind Crabtree or Bowe. I'm thinking Crabtree could take a 1 year "prove it" deal, but then again, all it takes is one team to throw decent-big money at home.

If Payton and company are serious about becoming a run first play action offense (big IF I know) then I think we have the guys on the roster to do that with. Stills and Cooks are as fast, if not faster, than Amari Cooper. Everyone remembers Colston's drops last season but he had some unbelievable catches in traffic and can still do that when called upon. I think Hill is going to be really good now that he's the man. And there's still Toon out there as a big tall dude who can go up and get balls (though I'm not convinced he's ever going to be a thing). Not sure we need an expensive veteran (or even a cheap one on his last legs).

How about, what WR can we trade the 31st-1st round pick for?

if we swing it so that we end up with a center AND a true #1 WR, then the JG trade was brilliant.

I would prefer Kenny Britt with the choices given.



But in the 2nd round, I wouldn't mind Jaelen Strong or even Dorial Green-Beckham.
