Who else is irreplaceable? Easy answer. No one. But longevity in the scheme and league is a good thing to have. Sign Lazard to a nice deal. He fits really well. And he works hard. And we are talking WR3 money here, or low end WR2 money. Fractional compared to Adams. Whatever he gets, offer 30% less to MVS or ESB and see who takes it. Draft a rookie WR this year to develop and be the #4. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mazrimiv Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 It seems like all of the WR's not named Adams should be fairly easy to extend at very reasonable numbers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't really see anyone until the 4th round as things stand here. Do you go the Marques Colston route and take a smaller TE that runs routes extremely well and can develop into that possession receiver who can block well?

You can look outside the mold for 1 or 2 spots. Ervins spots never safe and we obviously crave at least 1 "playmaker" out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We wouldn't need a "prototypical" guy as we would have that covered with Lazard and one of ESB or MVS. No reason the guy couldn't be 5-11 or 6 feet tall. And if we wanted a prototypical guy, yah, see what big dudes are there late in the draft. Personally, I hope we find someone with more upside than our prototypical guys, and I hope we take it earlier than the 4'th. I just threw out the 4'th because I ran a TDN mock and found a good looking WR there. Can't remember the name, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sage Surratt EDIT - Oh, just saw you said you don't see anything until the 4th round. I thought you asked for someone in that 4th round range. Rashod Bateman and Tylan Wallace fit the Packers mold.

Surratt lacks the explosiveness we need as does Wallace. Looks like Bateman will be off the board by the time we would be drafting in the first. Dazz Newsome makes a lot of sense if we're trying to replace Ervin/Austin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what was asked. Wallace is a contested catch monster and a deep ball guy. He's someone that, from day one, puts pressure on MVS to succeed. Surratt is someone that would push Lazard in a similar role. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I immediately thought of that reading his profile, but Lazard's a bigger WR both height and weight wise. I just don't see Surratt being able to do at 6-2 what Lazard can do at 6-5...

IF there's someone you value as a tier above everyone else, you take him. And I think TT already admitted that he was fielding offers for the pick before taking Rodgers, but that Rodgers was going to be the pick so long as nobody made a legitimate offer for the pick.

He's not a small human being in the slightest. Edited December 31, 2020 by beekay414 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's tough to tell where WR's will go right now. All it takes is a good 40 and a guy can jump two rounds. Sure this is fun, but we will know more in a few months. I know that I want a guy who can run across the field on our post routes and rollouts with some extreme acceleration and speed. I know that the team really likes and does well with the larger guys for blocking and using scheme to get them open. Guess I feel we have enough of them for next year and would like something a little different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
