This is the Year to Breakaway from WR Height/Weight Thresholds

When it comes to the NFL draft, every team has specific thresholds for each position. Whether it's a combination of height and weight, a shuttle time, or the 10-yard split in the 40-yard dash, there are both physical and athletic marks that teams often stick to. They believe being above or below those thresholds can either increase or decrease the prospect's chances of NFL success.

And the Green Bay Packers are no different. One of the more obvious trends that has been observed over the years is their love of the big-bodied receiver.

Now, this just isn't a trend under Brian Gutekunst; although he has stuck to it, it was prominent when Ted Thompson was the General Manager as well.
