vegas492 Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 4 hours ago, spilltray said: It's probably a good idea to look at the WR prospects potentially available late 1st to 4th rounds pretty heavily. Both Cobb and Nelson are entering contract years and Nelson has clearly started to lose a step. I fully expect Devante Adams to get a deal, but it's time to bring in some guys that have legit starting ability. Look for route running and consistency over pure athletic ability. We are looking for a guy that does the little things and probably has pretty productive volume stats. Our WR corp is good for this year, but I"m thinking the cupboard is pretty void moving forward. Poor Jordy has lost a step and it hasn't come back yet this year. Time to draft someone with WR #1 qualities. Cobb is up and down and getting dinged up. Allison, well, to me he isn't a WR1 or WR2. Janis, well, I don't think he will ever get the confidence of the coaches to sniff WR1 or WR2 snaps. Davis, too small to play WR1 or WR2. I'm hoping that a year on the PS gives Clark a leg up and that we can pickup a WR in round 2 or round 3 to pair with Davante in the future.

spilltray Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 Sure WR is good now, 2017, and next year isn't a worry either but past that definitely is and I'd like to get at least one guy you are grooming as a #2-3 in system a year before you REALLY need him.

Absolutely. Draft and develop works best when the drafted players have a year or 2 to develop before being thrust into a high volume role Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Draft and develop works best when the drafted players have a year or 2 to develop before being thrust into a high volume role My ideal scenario would be resigning Adams to a fair deal, and drafting a WR in the first 3 rounds in 2018. His rookie year, he's a 4/5 option, if the right type, maybe he gets a shot at returner. In 2019, resign Jordy to a deal he can live up to. By that point he'll be a solid #2 and your young guy can move up to the 2/3 role as his ability and skill merits. One key is looking for a guy that can be a perimeter WR. I'm not interested in slot type guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having spent a 2nd round pick on a slot only WR seems like poor value, especially when you see other good slot WR around the league....Edelman, Amendola, Beasley, Crowder, among others. It seems like you can find those types of WR without having to invest the premium draft pick. Monty could certainly serve the slot role very well if Jones is able to be a lead RB.

justo Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 The only WR I want is Dante Pettis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vegas492 Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 I'm still hoping that Watkins becomes a free agent and comes over here to play with Rodgers. He will be 25, just hitting his prime. Him and Adams could be a great combo to move forward with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kenrik Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 Ward a conerback from ohio state would be ideal. Very aggressive and smart player. Likes to hit too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pad Level Posted October 16, 2017 Share Posted October 16, 2017 The packers should draft Josh Rosen if they get a top 10 pick. QBs are everything in this league and Rodgers will be 35 when he takes his next snap. Perfect time to groom a top prospect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
