I agree with the consensus that 4 of our WRs can line up with any 4 even if the current Old Spice Spokesman can't match up with Megatron.

Rodgers has developed a reputation for spreading the ball around to multiple receivers which will also add to the perception that all of our WRs are good. Remember last year with the press trying to find one of our WRs whining about not getting enough touches?

Its kind of interesting to think of what the Pack would look like with a superstar Wide Receiver. Its not really compatible with the way the Pack run their offense. Maybe this contributes ti why we don't have someone on the team of that caliber.

Sorry, but I watched enough reckless football from 1999 through 2007, with no hardware put in the trophy case. I'll take the more conservative route and watch our offense run correctly. I just hope our young defense gets coached up quickly.

Well convince me of another team having a stronger set of 5 WRs. If they as a group are among the best in the NFL they are elite.

One of the two, maybe both.


I don't have to convince you of anything. You've got your mind made up. I'm not stupid enough to waste my time so you can just nitpick it apart. 🤐

If you want to be open minded, check out teams like the Patriots, Saints for starters. I haven't checked into it because honestly I don't really care. I'd say the Packers have the best starting two, hands down.

FWIW:

Jennings: Elite. A serious loss if not re-signed. A big part of the reason why the others look so good.

Nelson: Solid. Not Raymond Berry, but definitely Boyd Dowler with a bit of deceptive Carroll Dale quickness. If Ray Scott were still alive, we'd be preparing for years of "Rodgers. Nelson. Touchdown."

Driver: Inspirational leader. Will have some drops, but will also make amazing catches. Possession receiver. Not being used sufficient for his remaining strengths.

Jones: I don't know anymore. I don't think he's as undependable as people think, with the exception of the deep sideline over the outside shoulder pass. I think if you look at all his drops over the years, most of them come on that pattern. Physically he seems made for it, but there's something wrong with his eyes there or something. Not sure what. But it's clearly his Achilles heel. I'm comfortable with him on any other pattern, but I'd rather they never had to give him that one.

Cobb: Fun. A unique combination of talents. I don't see him as Jenning's replacement at all. I think making him into a standard #1 or #2 WR would be wasting his talents. I think if they handle him right, he could end up redefining the slot/motion position. Or defining a new one. The Cobb.

I'm starting to think Finley is over-rated (and not just by himself). But the WR corps is not.

I wouldnt trade the 5 for any other unit.
And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.
