[QUOTE="Pokerbrat2000, post: 873908, member: 7261"] This will be something discussed quite a bit before, during and after the season. I heard this same thing a year ago. At that time the Packers had a lot of young talent that they were very high on, let Cobb walk in Free agency and did nothing in the draft to inject high end talent to the group. I complained about the group being thin back in September and unfortunately I think my fears were proven to be correct. Skip ahead one year. The 2019 season was filled with inconsistent play by the WR's group. Adams was himself, Lazard stepped up from the Practice squad and showed that he potentially could be a legit starter (something MVS showed his rookie year). Meanwhile, GMO proved he isn't a starter. MVS fell off a cliff. Trevor Davis was traded to the Raiders for a 6th round pic and later cut by the Raiders, Shepherd stunk and was demoted to the PS and Kumerow played like the utility 6th WR that he seems to be. So what has changed since the end of the 2019 to make Gute and MLF so content with the WR room that they passed up drafting a probable rookie starter in a deeply talented WR draft? [LIST=1] [*]Signed CFL WR Reggie Begelton [*]Signed FA Devin Funchess [*]Let GMO walk [*]resigned Kumerow [*]ESB gets healthy [/LIST] Sorry, none of those moves make me think that the Packers WR group is much better than what we saw in 2019. MLF and Gute can tell us all they want that "they really like the group they have" or "the board just didn't fall the way we wanted it to". I don't fully believe either statement. Would love to know how #12 feels. [/QUOTE]
