The Green Bay Packers have reached a crossroads.
While they accomplished a major offseason goal when they retained Aaron Rodgers on a record-setting extension, they took a step backward by trading his top weapon, Davante Adams.
None of the incumbent wide receivers—a trio that includes Allen Lazard, Randall Cobb and Amari Rodgers—nor the newly signed Sammy Watkins project to become the type of elite No. 1 option that this roster now sorely lacks.
The Packers will get one more chance to patch that glaring hole in the 2022 NFL draft, an event that will shape the direction of the franchise for the next half-decade or more.
