Terrence Murphy had a tragic injury. He had to quit football. He had to be replaced.
Greg Jennings, James Jones and Jordy Nelson are still the projected 1, 2 and 3, I asume, with Driver getting up there in age and having to retire sometime.
Everything after the 5th round is going for the BPA and hoping to find a gem in my eyes. Swain is still out there, but like I said, he was just the best player available at that point in TT's eyes, I asume.
I don't know what happend with Clowney. 5th round pick, but he didn't make the final roster cutes, apparently. Cory Rodgers got arrested and is playing in Canada now. Obviously, that was a bad pick, but still, that was a late rounder.
Then Craig Bragg. Another hopefully hidden gem. We sent him to Europe, but he couldn't even really show his skills over there.
I don't want to justify his every move, but I don't think he has gone overboard on the WRs. Picking a WR early in this draft wouldn't have made any sense. Same goes for the coming years, if this group does pan out. So far, I'm still pretty happy, though.
