honestly we are super thin at WR. I know some of y'all don't keep up with us that much but our base set is 4 WR and probably 20% of our plays are 5 WR sets. Given that you'd want a bare minimum 12 but our staff would like around 15. Y'all actually have about the same numbers as we do and run almost exclusively 2 and 3 WRs sets. But WRs are pretty useful on STs and the like as well.

If nothing changed from this moment, including recruits, we'd only have 13 in 2014 but there are rumors of one guy declaring and a couple of others that may not be back. Also, we already know 3 starting spots are open and it's possible all 4 may be. Anyway, despite taking 6 last year, we are no where close to having too many WRs.

If nothing changed for us right now we would have 8 and that's assuming two guys being brought in for a look at multiple positions both end up at WR (which isn't likely imo).

No we have 5 receivers who are coming back that will actually have a legit chance to play. We have another 3 on board and Dupre as our last one for a total of 9 which is perfect for 3 WR sets.

Cam will also install his whole package next year and we are possibly looking at 3-4 WR sets as the norm and 5 "receiver" sets more frequent. IMO we may only have 4 WRs at the most even in our best uptempo because we have some athletes at TE.
