I don't know who if any of the receivers is going to have 100 receptions or 1000 yards or 15 Tds this year. I after hearing so many people rave about how well they are doing or that they are expected to have more opportunities this season it makes me wonder who will be the leading receiver on this team.

Last year Reed had 64 receptions, 793 yards and 8 TDs.
Doubs 59/674/8
Wicks 58/674/4
Watson 28/422/5 (9 games)

First I think the quartet will take opportunities from other WRs like (Melton, Heath and Toure- who I don't expect to make the 53.)
They are the only other WR that had any receptions last year. They combined for 39/268/1.

Next I think the offense in general will be more effective than they were last year. I am not sure they will start off as well as they finished the season but it will be better than the first half. Looking at Love's performances he had 3 of his first 6 games with less than 200 yards. 5 out of 8 were less than 250* yards. (* because one game he had 259. the win against New Orleans in week 3. He only competed 50% of his passes. A rating of 66.4. They only scored 18 points. It wasn't a very good outing for Love.)
He is going to do better this year which means the receivers will have more opportunities.

While Watson will, hopefully, play more games I think he is the deep threat decoy. If he's open Love will get him the ball but he's going to take pressure off other receivers by drawing double coverage.

Doubs seems to be the big time possession receiver. He had the most first downs but the fewest YAC.

Wicks is going to get more chances than last year but he won't outshine Reed.

Everyone will have better numbers than last year but they will finish:

1. Reed
2. Doubs
3. Wicks
4. Watson

Last year I thought Watson would run away with WR1 honors. I don't see him getting enough chances to be a true #1.

U can switch between Reeds and Doubs as 1 or 2. 3rd is Wicks and Watson 4th

Doubs is the only wr to play all 17 games last year.
The Packers will probably need all 7 throughout the season.

Watson , when healthy is a game changer.
He is the best, when healthy.

The player who stays the healthiest will be the one with the best numbers.

They all stay healthy, look out!
I was addicted to The Hokey Pokey, but I turned myself around!

Availability is the key ability so Doubs gets the edge.

Isn't it great that we have so many to choose from. I hope the clubhouse and team can stay away from the "#1 receiver" non-sense. It only creates jealousy and the resultant salary demands.
Go Packers!!!!

beast (2-Jan) : Thanks dfosterf, I'm still kicking myself for last week, as I forgot to change to pick Vikings and Lions... after putting in a holding spot.
Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : First alternate: Elgton Jenkins Other alternates: Jordan Love, Kenny Clark, Keisean Nixon, Tucker Kraft, Josh Myers, Jaire Alexander
Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : Pro Bowl still a thing? Guess Packers have three. Jacobs, Gary, McKinney.
dfosterf (2-Jan) : It's a mine field with all the players sitting, etc
dfosterf (2-Jan) : There was quite a bit of "chalk" matchups this year it seemed, but not this week coming up
Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : Or we got better and by we I mean everyone except me
Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : We have about six that by percent would have won nearly any season. I guess 2024 was predictable 🤷

dfosterf (2-Jan) : Hats off to the Beast
dfosterf (2-Jan) : I'm at 71.76% in pick 'em. 2nd place. Beast is at a flat 75% 9 games ahead. That 75% has got to be unprecedented this late in the season

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : BTW, not serious.
Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : You don't care about it either!!!!

Mucky Tundra (2-Jan) : outside of Texas-Arizona St, it's been a snoozefest
beast (2-Jan) : I expect Georgia will change that tomorrow, but we'll have to wait and see. If they do, then only Big 10 and SEC are left.
beast (2-Jan) : So much for Conference Championship meaning something as 100% (so far) of the conference Champions lost their first playoff game.
Zero2Cool (1-Jan) : Jaire had surgery, season over.
Mucky Tundra (1-Jan) : I guess I need a new sig Pic. Boo
Mucky Tundra (1-Jan) : Eric Dickerson approves of this decision

Zero2Cool (1-Jan) : Patriots are waiving veteran pass rusher Yannick Ngakoue
beast (1-Jan) : Happy New Year's 🥳🎉
beast (31-Dec) : I want to them chant some songs for Daniel Whelan

Mucky Tundra (31-Dec) : After London and Brazil, I could go without an overseas game for a while
Zero2Cool (31-Dec) : Packers. Steelers. Ireland. 2025. Reports say.
Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Matt Lafleur on if Jaire will play again this season. "Yeah I don't know... he's been dealing with swelling."
Mucky Tundra (30-Dec) : After the way they played for most of the game yesterday, I don't see how you can sit anyone for the whole game
Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : I'd say play everyone. Going into playoffs at 7th seed on two game lose streak - yucky
Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Do the Packers have any best players?
beast (30-Dec) : Play or Rest*
beast (30-Dec) : Should the Packers play or free their best players vs the Bears?
Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Packers should be 3 - 2 in the Division. Bonkers being swept by both Lions and Vikings. yikes
go.pack.go. (30-Dec) : All crazy stuff…and good point beast
beast (30-Dec) : Packers should be 0-5 in the division, can't say I saw that coming, even 1-4
Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Sam Darnold 35 TD's ... another one
Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Baker Mayfield, 39 TD's ... can't say I saw that one
Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : No matter who is playing as 7th, I think we want them to win. Get rid of 2nd seed haha
go.pack.go. (30-Dec) : That would be dhazer who was rooting for Minnesota
beast (30-Dec) : Well, Commanders are currently the 6th seed and Packers the 7th
beast (30-Dec) : Who was it in Chat, that wanted the Vikings to win (because Lions fans upset them) because Packers could not lose the 6th seed?
beast (30-Dec) : If Falcons win, Packers stay as the 6th seed and Falcons lead the NFCS, if they lose, Commanders 6th and Bucs take NFCS lead
beast (30-Dec) : Win or Loss, the NFCS is going down to week 18
Mucky Tundra (30-Dec) : if the Falcons win, how does that affect the overall NFC playoff picture? Does it mean that the NFC South comes down to week 18?
