The systems sucked, the QBs werent anything to write home about. This team could make Antonio Brown look pedestrian.

Crabtree goes to Oakland, looks a lot better.

Stevie Johnson goes to San Diego, looks a lot better.

Ginn goes to Carolina, they actually throw the ball to him. His hands still suck but he makes plays for them.

I could see him being used like Matthews in the slot.

Depending how well Smelter develops the receivers should be fine. There's no #1 receiver Torrey Smith is not that but you don't really need one. Smith, Smelter, Patton, Ellington maybe throw in a 2nd or 3rd round pick and we should be fine there.

With Kaep throwing into the dirt?

LaQuan and Torrey in a Chip Kelly offense?

I don't think chip needs a #1. He schemes guys to get open and doesn't need guys to do it themselves. If anything, he will want multiple guys that can separate and run after the catch, and not a lone guy who is branded the "#1".

Good point! We could have 4-5 receivers getting a lot of playing time. Plus our RB's getting a lot of screen passes, TE's...etc.
i'm so excited to FINALLY get some offense after 12-14 years with little to NO offense!

I've read that there are actually four or five who are worthy of a high pick.

One thing I would advocate for is more speed on offense. Seattle and the Cards have been loading up on guys with pure speed, not worrying about if they are a #1 or #2 or #3 WR, just good, explosive receivers that can stretch the field vertically.

Corey Coleman out of Baylor may be the fastest receiver in the draft. He'll be there, but I think they'll go for a bigger guy like Treadwell or Doctson if they go receiver in the first.
