The reason people take WR's early in the first round is because they think they'll need LESS development, that they're more 'polished'.
But that has no bearing on whether or not guys 'develop' from other places in the draft.
It's just a silly statement.

I think in the later rounds you kinda have to bank on an athlete learning routes and feel, or guys with feel with less physical upside. I actually think we got a bit of a steal in rashee because he seems to have both. It’s not that it’s impossible, but there are limits to how much you can coach up athleticism that isn’t there and I think feel is maybe more raw instinct than it is developable muscle than we give it credit for.
Maybe this is a little too bold… but for those looking for value at WR, is it possible we consider really smart guys with slightly less athleticism for x/y and then continue to round out our WR depth with pure athletes and specialists?
