What if (likely to happen):

Bowe and Welker re-sign with their respective teams

Jennings gets tagged by the Packers (not to mention the news that Philbin doesnt care for him)

We lose a bidding war on Mike Wallace

Are we possibly forcing Ireland & Co. into Patterson at 12? Knowing he needs to make some sort of a splash this off-season, how can he afford to miss out on all fronts. I am completely on board with best available/secondary...

but, there is no denying the fact we can't remain stagnant going into the new season.

2014 WR Free Agents aren't exactly looking great for a wait one more year approach.
