For FAs I like Golden Tate and John Brown...

Tate led WRs in broken tackles  and is said to usually be high in that stat... Brown is a small explosive WR who has had some trouble staying fully healthy (which is why he might come at a cheaper price), but he stayed healthy for all 16 games and was averaging a 1,000 yard season until the Ravens benched Flacco for the rookie running QB.

I like Moncrief but he may be the best WR available and will likely cost too much. What about Funchess or Dorsett They are younger but will likely get more than 10 million per judging from what guys got last season

You guys are right. I think this offense is really gonna highlight Davante's skillset. Wouldn't mind seeing Jmon take step up to play behind him. I like MVS and EQ on the outside.

Should be a pretty good corps, but could really use a playmaker. Maybe one of the former rookies will step up. Could use a TE too.

1 speed receiver
2 route running receivers
1 blocker
1 RB

Clearly Adams will be a route runner, and MVS will be the speed guy. But after that it's a bit unclear... some are saying Graham is out because he can't be the blocker... but no where do I see Graham can't potentially be the other route running receiver... lots of people are basing the Packers future scheme off the Rams (who use 3 WRs and a TE blocker), but LaFleur spent more time with Kyle Shanahan who uses the TE as a receiver (and a FB as the blocker)... and just last year LaFleur lead the Titans, who were planning on using two TEs including a receiving TE and a blocking TE (but the receiving TE had a season ending injury in week 1).

So the Packers potential line-up could be Adams, MVS and Graham as the 3 receivers... and the blocker (weather TE or FB) still to be determined.

Just trying to throw out a different possibility using the pieces currently signed for next year. And of course the Packers could potentially resign Kendricks and/or Lewis to be said blocker and the Packers offensive coordinator worked with Lewis as a blocking TE for 3 years.

I know he had gotten off to a very slow start last year, but all things considered, I thought Kendricks played well.... spectacular blocking.

I would like to see him back, especially in the tight end friendly offense (considering we need a number of tight-ends)

IMO, Graham is done, esp at the price. He is slow and cant block

Beast or RockMolder had mentioned Adam Humphries...for what its worth, here as a write up from yesterday...seems like a great option for us:

Adam Humphries 2019 NFL Free Agent Profile By David Latham, Editor - January 28, 2019
https://lastwordonprofootball.com/2019/01/28/adam-humphries-2019-nfl-free-agent-profile/ 

The 2018 Tampa Bay Buccaneers had no shortage of talent at the wide receiver position. From Mike Evans to DeSean Jackson to Chris Godwin, it was easy to overlook fourth-year wide receiver Adam Humphries. Humphries enters free agency on the heels of a career year and should be one of the top free agent wide receivers on the market.

Humphries is entering free agency at the right time. Originally signed as an undrafted free agent back in 2015, Humphries carved out a nice role for himself as Tampa Bay’s primary slot receiver. Playing in all 16 games, Humphries finished the 2018 season with 76 receptions for 816 yards and five touchdowns, all of which were career highs. He’s one of the more reliable players in the league, as he managed to haul in 72.4% of his targets, an impressive total considering the ball went his way 105 times.

Throughout his career, Humphries has 219 receptions for 2,329 yards and nine touchdowns. He’s never had a catch rate below 66.3% and has improved upon his receptions and yardage totals every year he’s been in the league. He keeps getting better and better and, at age 26, is in the prime of his career. Humphries should have no shortage of suitors, as he can immediately step into an offense an contribute....


The article goes onto speculate that NE and DET would be interested

Last Word on Free Agent Adam Humphries

After playing through his undrafted contract, Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Adam Humphries is about to see a significant pay increase. Humphries has improved each and every year he’s been in the league and is just 26 years old. Players in this position typically earn a large paycheck, and Humphries is certainly deserving of a raise.

Found this: Cole Beasley is a FA small slot WR... also DeSean Jackson is an outside speed WR, who wants out of TB because TB is getting behind QB Jameis Winston, who Jackson doesn't like at QB and thought Ryan Fitzpatrick was better.

Either of those guys, or Humphries, at the right price would be a good pickup
