2022 Draft Romeo Doubs #132

[Heyjoe4]

To be fair they didn’t commit long term to Watson, just one year. I was hoping they’d announce same time they did same with Doubs.

I get it though. Doesn’t mean I have to like it tho.

Yeah Watson was still in "prove it" mode, and as a result, he will get a good payday. But with all the skilled receivers on the team, there just wasn't room for Doubs. Most, if not all of us, don't like it either.

It’s different method at WR in Green Bay. Other than a Bonafide “deep threat” or “slot” WR. We really stick to our guns as far as making wide receivers earn their snaps. Reed was an exception because not everyone can just flip to slot at a high level and he’s really built for that role. Watson was the other exception because he filled a pure speed role to make Defenses account for him.

Here we have Golden. Yet he’s really more a crossover player. Reed gets nearly all the Slot work until Game 1. Kinda hard to stick an inexperienced College junior into that role on a dime without a firm grip on playbook. Especially when you have an underneath TE leading the league in performance. Who do you feed?

Also just an observation.
In games where Golden hit 4+ targets?

62 yards per in those 6 games.
1,054 yards across a 17 games season

In games where he had 1-3 targets?
8 yards per in those 9 games.
136 yards across a 17 game season.

Now we all fully realize it’s not how the math always works. Yet I think we all know if we Feed the man he falls somewhere between his 400 yards and that 1100 yard ceiling. I’ll take 700-900 yards I’m ok with that. Let’s feed the man.

Good summary of Doubs. He was a solid Packer and I think a fan favorite. He'll be missed.

Loved his bubble helmet.

Loved his bubble helmet.

That padded helmet is worn by a few guys in the NFL, but yeah, it was kinda like Doubs' trademark. Also just smart to wear one. I don't think it interferes with play.
