re: We could have had Jarvis Landry in the 2nd.

I still stick to my "We should have gotten Jordan Matthews". I was very happy we got Cooks, but I still wanted Matthews more just because of his college production, size, speed, and everything about him screamed #1 WR potential. Any other year, he would have been easily 1st round grade. Back to back years of 1300+ yards receiving with no one else on that Vandy team.

Currently, their production is about the same ~550 yards through 10 games.

The factor I'm considering is without Colston, we don't really have a wide receiver with size. Stills is 6'0 and Graham isn't a traditional receiver, but more of a mismatch piece against LBs/Safeties. I understand that we always had a speedy 'x' factor player (Bush, Sproles, and now Cooks), but we needed someone that had some size too. Matthews was that piece to me. Especially considering there were a handful of those "speedy" guys in the later rounds (Archer, Brown, DAT, etc) we could have double dipped.
