Wshful, I agree and I think the biggest flaw in that guy's article is to assume that Briggs and our 1st rounder would be enough to get us up to 5 from 19.  That assumes a hell of a lot of value for Briggs, who is a very good player but is closer to the end of his productive career than the beginning. 

Also you have to question the scenario of making all those moves (including giving up the 2013 2nd rounder), just to get Blackmon and Brandon Marshall while completely ignoring the OL.  Clearly the writer assumes that having two legit WR targets will help Cutler more than improving the OL personnel.  It's chicken and egg I understand, but if Cutler's on his back he could have Andre Johnson, Larry Fitszgerald and Calvin Johnson all in the pattern and it still wouldn't help.
