Mox Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 (edited) Since Favre took over 1992, what are some of the best WR corps the Packers have had? What would be in your top 5? 1997? 2004? 2009? 2011? 2014? Also for fun, what would be the bottom 5?

skibrett15 Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 (edited) Best receiving corpse in possibly the history of the NFL was driver/jennings/nelson/jones edit: corpse Edited August 11, 2022 by skibrett15 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vegas492 Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 The worst core has to be when Favre had an aged and cooked Freeman out there as a starting WR along with Billy Schroder who I believe topped 1,000 yards once and hit like 999 another time. If those are your top two....yuck. Best? I'll take 2011. Driver, Jennings, Nelson, Jones, Cobb ....and Finley. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brat&Beer Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 2011 was the best. Jordy, Jennings, Driver, James Jones, Randall Cobb and Finley. 2005 was fairly bad. After Javon Walker tore his ACL in Week 1, Packers had Driver and not much else. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spilltray Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 It's corps. That is all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was it 04 or 05 when we went 4-12 with Driver and Turd Ferguson, Antonio Chatman, and Rod Gardner? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was 2005. 2004 was Walker and Driver both being awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think 04 was a 10 win season and two 1,000 yard receivers in Driver and Walker. 05 was bad, but Driver was over 1200 yards and Walker was hurt right away. So by injury, it was bad.

Only issue I have with this is that while it's the best names, Driver was pretty well cooked and cobb was a rookie. Nelson is just starting to pop though on this team.

Driver was pretty "cooked", but if he's your 4'th or 5'th option? Even cooked, that is a great option down there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
