The Packers traded away the best receiver in the game.
They have Allen Lazard and Randall Cobb as their leading vets and brought in perennial retreat Sammy Watkins, who is now on his 3rd team in 3 years.
It doesn't look like there's a game-breaker in that bunch ready to take on Davante Adams's role.
So the Packers drafted Christian Watson and Romeo Doubs.
Can either of them fill Davante's role as a rookie?
Of course not. Should we even expect them to have average rookie production?
Let's take a look at the rookie year statistics of every receiver the Packers have drafted over the last decade:
- 2021 - Amari Rodgers: 4 catches - 45 yards - 0 touchdowns
- 2018 - J'Mon Moore: 2/15/0
- 2018 - MVS: 38/581/2
- 2018 - EQ: 21/328/0
- 2017 - DeAngelo Yancey: 0/0/0
- 2017 - Malachi Dupre: 0/0/0
- 2016 - Trevor Davis: 9/115/0
- 2015 - Ty Mongomery: 15/136/2
- 2014 - Davante Adams: 38/446/3
- 2014 - Jared Abbrederis: 9/111/0
- 2014 - Jeff Janis:2/16/0
- 2013 - Charles Johnson: 0/0/0
- 2013 - Kevin Dorsey: 0/0/0
Wow.
