I did not expect him to fall as far as he did. I rated him similarly to Davante Adams. I figured Adams would go higher. I knew I was higher on Abbrederis than most people were, but to get him in round five is great. If you haven't already, find the Ohio State game on youtube and watch him torch Bradley Roby. I know they play different positions, but there is not a four-round difference between those two players.

By the way, the receving corps now looks like the following...

1. Jordy Nelson
2. Randall Cobb
3. Jarrett Boykin
4. Davante Adams
5. Jared Abbrederis

I think they're going to try to stash Jeff Janis on the practice squad if they can.

I was surprised we took one WR, much less three. However, I'm moderately happy about Adams and extremely happy about getting Abbrederis, especially as low as a fifth round pick.

We now have no less than five excellent WRs - a #1, a 1 A, a 3, a 3 A, and a 3 B.

Surprised how big Janis is, probably a good candidate for the PS.

18 COBB, RANDALL WR 5-10 192 4
