NFC South Draft Needs

Nfl networks take on our issues and who we should draft to fix it

NFC South draft needs: Xavier Rhodes would cover Bucs at CB - NFL.com

The bit that makes me laugh is they say our wide receiver depth is poor?

Colston, moore, joe morgan, nick toon and we use jimmy graham and sproles as WR's

Well, I'd have to say Morgan and Toon are still really unkowns so to speak. Neither have had significant play time to really strut their stuff.

Re: NFC South Draft Needs

Rosenthal is an idiot and he proves it with each article.

The most powerful offense in the league that doesn't run the ball enough lacks depth at WR?

Anyway he says our "depth" is poor not talent, and our depth looks like this.

Moore
Morgan
Tanner
Colston
Toon
Givens
Parker
Hakim
Roby

Re: NFC South Draft Needs

Only Moore and Colston are proven. The rest have a lot ofpotential.

I'd kinda agree that WR is a need, but I do like what I've seen from Morgan.

We're not as stout as Atlanta's top 3 WR's Julio, Roddy and Douglas.

Watson could end up being a pretty big contributor as well.

Re: NFC South Draft Needs

If Brandon Lloyd would take a prove it 1 year deal, I'd welcome him with open arms. Colston, Lloyd, Moore, Morgan looks much better than Colston, Moore, Morgan, Toon.

With that said, there are plenty of interesting upside wide receiver prospects that can be had in the middle rounds of the draft. There's also some veterans out there that could be had for the league minimum that could provide solid depth. Steve Breaston, Austin Collie, Early Doucet, Brandon Stokley, among others. Bring them in and if they aren't healthy or doesn't have any tread left on their tires, cut them... no biggie and move on.

It's an area of concern but it's a position that can easily be fixed both inexpensively and quickly.

Everyone is entitled to be stupid, but some abuse the privilege.

All little common sense goes a long way.
