The Green Bay Packers used their second pick in the 5th round on another receiver. Their wide receiver room was pretty empty until they made Wicks their second receiver taken in the draft.
Analysis
Virgina WR Dontayvion Wicks is an athletic receiver that showed flashes during his collegiate career. His athleticism and instincts have suited him well. His underwhelming 2022 season and struggles with focus drops have proved to be struggles for him.
His play in 2021 shows his potential to threaten defenses and showed his big-play potential. He gained 20-plus yards on half of his catches in 2021 showing his big-play ability as he has quick accelerations and elusiveness that can lead to great YAC opportunities.
