My point was about the WR position. Especially for Pete Ball, ie a run first, ball control, point guard QB, don't put the defense in bad positions type of team, you don't need Pro Bowl quality wide receivers and you don't need to spend high draft picks to find them.Baldwin definitely a UDFA steal, Kearse, solid but not like Baldwin. If you can find a starter or two among your crop of UDFAs, you're doing great. A star is a star, whether he's a high draft pick, a UDFA or a waiver pickup.
In 2011, the year Doug Baldwin was signed as a UDFA, the Seahawks had four UDFAs make the 53-man roster, including Ricardo Lockette, Jeron Johnson and the long-forgotten Josh Portis.
You make a good point. This year, Jake Bobo and Matt Landers might make the roster. Justin Jefferson went in the first round, but Cooper Kupp went in the third and Tyreek Hill in the 5th.My point was about the WR position.
