I really would want to ask Shanahan what the hell he's thinking with the wr's. I just don't get it. Have some confidence in the guys YOU drafted. And please...no one say.."well we didn't have OTA's and mini camps." That's a bunch of BS. No need for all those wr's.
Shanahan seems to bring "older" guys in who are going to

a)be competitive at a spot, thus pushing the rookies

and

b) be quality practice players, again showing rookies how they need to be practicing.

That way, if a rookie beats out a vet, you have a long term solution, but if the rookie stumbles somehow, you aren't left empty handed. After all, not one of these contracts were super bank busters...
