Alshon Jeffrey
Pricey, down year, better option than Britt. Good pairing with Tavon, Cooper and Quick? No need to draft a WR early here.

Second only to Devante Adams of Green Bay in tight coverage.
2) Alshon Jeffery, Chicago Bears (60.9 percent catch rate)

It was a strange year for Alshon Jeffery. Yes, he had to catch passes from three different quarterbacks, but even at the beginning of the year with Jay Cutler on the field, he took a back seat in target distribution to an inexperienced Kevin White. And this was after Alshon Jeffery led the NFL in targets per route run in 2015. He ended up being suspended for four games toward the twilight portion of the season and finished with just two touchdowns on the year.

While he did not have the contract year he wanted playing under the franchise tag for the Bears this year, he will nevertheless command a ton of attention on the free agent market as a highly talented receiver. One of Jeffery's best assets, of course, is his ability to play the ball in the air in contested situations. Jeffery posted 60.9 percent catch rate on targets (23) where he had less than a yard of separation. He averaged 21.1 yards per reception on those targets, and 14.9 air yards per target on the season. He'll bring a dynamic downfield threat who can win contested catches to a new team should he leave Chicago.

Martellus Bennett
He's got some in the tank and has the size and speed. Makes other TE's expendable.

Terrelle Pryor
IF not too expensive, going big at WR would be delicious.

Dontari Poe
I know, this list is expensive and the Rams couldn't get them all, but with Donald, the line would be unstoppable inside.

Cornerback, linebacker, oline, are big needs, but BIG PLAYMAKING wideouts go a long way. A new scheme beyond five-7 yards courtesy of the the fresh coach should help this as well.

What's YOUR wishlist?

Watching the playoffs has been such a mind bender for me.
Watching the playoffs, time and time again we see passes being caught where the receiver is blanketed, in real tight coverage. Back shoulder throws etc. And as long as the ball is in the general vicinity, the receiver catches it.
What a world of difference when all we can do is hope "our guy" catches the completely uncontested throw that is right to him.

Why do you like TJ Lang? And Desean is a beast. Maybe he could teach Tavon a thing or two??

I've seen Quick and Tavon do it, but I'm also interested in play calls that scheme receivers open. They'll catch it and we just need a coach who can prove that. Imaging having guys wide open lol...I mean we do have a QB that can deliver that...I know what you mean tho that's why I'm hoping we pick up Alshon. Man that would be the bomb.

Let's be realistic with our wishlist. Meaning there is a salary cap. Don't go over the top.
