You can argue the same point with your LT Sherrod. I have actually read, that this is the least talented pool of Tackles in years and none are as talented as the players taken in the last few drafts (Long, Smith, Okung, etc.) I've also read that Sherrod, Love, Camiri would be better suited to start out as right tackles.. Which is why I said to take Love in the 2nd round or Gilbert in the 3rd.
My point is that our #1 Priority should be to add a solid WR to line up opposite Dwayne Bowe, Weather it be 1st or 2nd round whatever, I believe Haley can coach whichever WR we pick up. Look at Bowe, since buying into what Haley wanted him to do... Pro Bowler. Haley knows receivers and can bring out the best in them, and I still feel that our biggest glaring need is a WR2.
