How often do super bowl winning teams have elite receivers on them? Not saying it never happens, but I think it is pretty rare. I think the combination of salary cap hit and the need to get their catches can bring diminishing returns. I also think it is harder to game plan for a balanced team of good receivers.

49ers did it with Jerry Rice three times and the Cowboys did it three times with Michael Irvin. Those are the ones that immediately jumped out to me.

Long time ago. I don't think they were huge cap hits (honestly don't know).

In it but did not win. Same with TO. Just seems like teams with good receivers tend to win more than the ones with elite receivers. Maybe just an anomaly but it could be cap space usage. Also seem to cause team dissension if they don't get enough targets.
 
Stallworth and Swann.

Drew Pearson.

Isaac Bruce.

Steve Smith.
 
These are the 20 highest paid WRs on a per-year basis, with a * next to those with Super Bowl rings (I think I got them all). I imagine that 4 out of 20 is probably on par with most other positions around the NFL, other than probably QB which looks like it has 7 out of the top 20 with Super Bowl rings and like 13 rings between those 7 QBs. By way of comparison, I think 4 of the 20 highest paid Left Tackles have rings. So WR probably isn't much different from an impact perspective than a Left Tackle, which most people would readily pay.

The argument was about getting to the Super Bowl so you’ll need to add a few asterisks to the lists.
 
No thanks

I've had enough of spending first round picks on dudes from no name schools
 
Davenport seems like a beast, and will likely be gone by the time we pick, according to many. Wouldn't dislike that pick. Also, Will Hernandez, G from UTEP, is a monster and would be a solid starting LG next year. Wouldn't dislike that pick either.
 
It would be weird to go LG in the first, especially if last year's 3rd is supposed to be the plan there.

What I like about this mock is that only Ridley is taken at WR, which means it is pretty likely we could take one of the next 4 WR's in R2.
