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!!!!
