The Green Bay Packers drafted a trio of receivers in the 2023 draft, and with apologies to seventh rounder Grant DuBose, I think it’s worth a quick comparison of second rounder Jayden Reed of Michigan State and fifth round selection Dontayvion Wicks of Virginia. There are a few important similarities between the two as well as some key differences. I was critical of the Reed pick on draft day as a second round pick seemed like a reach, and there were several other receivers still available who I preferred, like Rashee Rice and Marvin Mims.
