Elsewhere, I'm seen enough Packers fans crap on this pick (WR Reed) I want him to do great just so others can throw it back in those complaining fans faces.
I think some just assumed Packers would target another Watson type (tall, big and burner speed) and I assumed Gute would target tall and big, as he always has outside Amari (whom was big but not tall).
WR Reed might not be a burner (I don't see 4.37 in his highlights, he doesn't seem to burn anyone with pure speed) but he makes some freaking excellent quick sharpe route running cuts which gave me some flash backs to short and intermediate route running in Jennings and Cobb prime, and his highlights show coaching film quality level of coming back to the ball and high pointing the ball like I don't remember seeing in WR film (some TEs do it better, but I can't remember a WR).
Reed can run more detailed routes that others on the roster can't. Let others go down for the deep ball, let Reed and the TEs try to control the middle and intermediate routes.
Watson and Musgrave (maybe Doubs) will be are deep shots and Reed, Kraft (maybe Dugara) intermediate shots
