Kenny Stills? He's on the roster; Lance in the slot?!? We've got a good krewe at WR though I agree we need to have that fifth receiver developing and Toon can't seem to get the consistency/catchy thing going...

Believe me I really like Stills, just drove out to Gulfport for a signing with him and Kenny Vaccaro, but our other guys are starting to get up there in age and lose the edge they used to have. Meachem, Moore, and Colston are all right at 30 and I believe the between Meachem and Moore one of them isn't coming back to us this off-season. I want to see how we do with Morgan back, but for now I think you are right and we need a fifth receiver to develop.

No argument about keeping the average age down; but watch the playoff game, especially the playoff game that had more camera angles than a regular season game...

Drew's arm strength and accuracy need a closer assessment; it's not just the receivers coming back for the deep ball either; of the curl routes for Colston, the ball was thrown to the wrong side of his body, taking away the advantage Colston briefly had and allowed the Seahawk defenders to make a play...

Not opposed to taking another receiver late in the draft for development; you can never have too many good handed WR or fleet-footed CB; I really like Jeff Janis of Saginaw Valley State College in the fourth round...

I would say both are gone. Moore is costing way too much next season and Meachem is slowing down. Morgan, Stills, Colston, Tanner and Toon would be my guess. Out of those 5 Toon may be gone. Tanner would take the place of Moore in the slot.
