packfanfb Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 1 minute ago, coachbuns said: In a passing offense, most teams like smaller, shifty Wr's? It's evident the Packers are looking to run the ball more and like bigger blocking types with some speed who can also catch the ball off play action. I mean that's fine, but why limit yourself instead of having both? It's been pointed out a few times already that one of the reasons GB struggled so much in the play-action passing game last year was because outside of Adams, we didn't have another real YAC guy on the field.

He's the floor for #2 for us. ESB is the ceiling for #2 for us. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watched the Lions game @lambeau from last year, the 'hands to the face' game. Got to watch a lot of Rick Wagner (he's no Bulaga) and saw a lot of our back up WRs. Came away with a confirmed impression of MVS.....he's timid and non-physical. He doesn't contend for the ball and he's not instinctive with the ball in his hands. I really think/hope he is #5 for us this year, if he's our #5 we should be okay. I'd put the depth chart at Adams, Funchess, St. Brown, Lazard with MVS and Kumerow battling it out for the 5th and final spot. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like our top 5 of Adams/Funchess/ESB/Lazard/MVS and then if there's a young guy with promise battling for WR6 vs other positions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Victor1124 Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 1 hour ago, packfanfb said: We must know something the rest of the league doesn't then....because a lot of team have smaller, shifty WRs. Big/lanky WRs might have good long speed but tend to struggle coming out of breaks, rounding off routes and generally are more "fast" than "quick" which is why they struggle more with short/intermediate routes where that quickness and cutting creates separation. Exhibit A: MVS. Yea honestly, I am not a huge fan of having a majority of receivers 6'4+, especially with a QB that isn't going to use that height as an advantage. I have always agreed with the mindset that you want your WR corps to resemble a basketball starting 5. Have your 5'10-6''0 PG, 6'1-6'3 SG/SF, and your 6'4/6'5 PF/C. All of our best receivers over the last two decades have been 6'3 or shorter. I know it is mentioned all the time but I really hope our FO isn't taking guys off their board if they aren't 6'3 or 6'4+ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
