What would you Choose?

I've been wondering what most people would take if given a situation such as the one I am going to present.

Situation: You drafted your Qb of the future and are building an offense, and someone gives you a choice between these two packages after the jump

A. The Reciver Package: You gets players of the caliber of: WR1: Andre JOhnson, WR2: Larry Fitzgerald Slot: Wes Welker, TE: Jimmy Graham, RB: Adrian Peterson - O line is pretty bad - for the sake of rating it, lets use the Madden ratings: no one on the line is over a 75.

B: O-Line Package: You get players of the caliber of: RT: Joe Thomas RG: Jahri Evans C: Nick Mangold LG: Logan Mankins LT: Jake Long - Skill player corps is pretty bad - similar to receiver package, no WR/TE/RB would have a rating over 75

Which package would you take? and Why? Would you rather give your young quarterback weapons or protection, obviously in the NFL you don't have to specialize in one area but just for my purposes you solidify one then go to the other. I just want to know what is valued more, having great O-Line play or great WR/TE/RB play in peoples opinion. The QB is the same person in both situations btw, in our case it would be A. Luck

This isn't even a challenge

In the real world you always take the o-line. With a elite line it makes your QB/RB/Receivers all look better.

I agree

But in real life you would have an entire defense of undrafted free agents due to constant cap problems.

Receiver package easily.

Sure O Line is very important, but a good quarterback can make that 75 rating look like an 85. And I’d trade AJ for CJ.

If Luck

I take the o-line. If it was Tom Brady or Manning, I’d take the receivers.

Agree with this.

But Brady has always had a great O line and his receivers (except Welker and except Moss in 07) are usually average. So it’s tough to say how Brady would do with a below avg line because he hasn’t had one.
