It was critical for A&M to load up on high end WR talent this year and they have. Most of the big producers from this year are gone so A&M needs guys that can step in Day 1, esp in a system that runs 5 Wides often and 4 WR/TE/H Backs on most other snaps. This offense just doesn't work without WR's that can get open and make plays.
Another factor is most of these guys are big because A&M stresses WR blocking in a huge way both for designed runs/JFF scrambles and to make short passes into big gainers. As great as Mike Evans was catching the ball this year he was even more of a beast blocking. Lots of video of 6'5 Evans crushing 5'10 DB's this season.
It is still a very balanced class for A&M, every position is addressed. Honestly I am just as excited about the defensive recruits.
