Only those who come onto a team that is without decent receivers really get a shot at being their reception leader from day one.Until he proves otherwise, there was something in Amari that they saw, that made them pick him when they did. He's not a big receiver, so best out of the slot, and not overly fast, at a little over 4.5 in the 40. But, if he does fill the needs, and learns from Cobb, he could be effective.So, let's assume we're set in the slot with Amari & Cobb. Now, let's say between arguably our 3 TEs who can produce, Tonyan, Deguara, and Lewis, along with one more if they choose, and probably will, that's two spots filled.Is Lazard ready to step up and be #1? Let's look at his stats. He's shown that he has the ability to step up, and this is his chance. Will he be our #1? I think he will, if for no other reason than his familiarity with Aaron, and the fact that Aaron was starting to feel some comfort with him as the #2 or #3. His catch percentage isn't over the top, but it's not bad either. He does know how to challenge for catches. I think he'll put up over 1,000 yards easily this year.To me, that leaves one spot open, and it could come from free agency, but I doubt it, because the Packers just can't afford a big bucks guy. It's possible they'll spend on of their first round picks on a plug and play type guy coming out of college. There are a few that are having their coming out party this year. Remember, the Packers run an offense that also likes to use RBs as receivers.                                       <table style='width: 100%'><tr><th>Year</th><th>Age</th><th>Tm</th><th>Pos</th><th>No.</th><th>G</th><th>GS</th><th>Tgt</th><th>Rec</th><th>Yds</th><th>Y/R</th><th>TD</th><th>1D</th><th>Lng</th><th>R/G</th><th>Y/G</th><th>Ctch%</th><th>Y/Tgt</th><th>Rush</th><th>Yds</th><th>TD</th><th>1D</th><th>Lng</th><th>Y/A</th><th>Y/G</th><th>A/G</th><th>Touch</th><th>Y/Tch</th><th>YScm</th><th>RRTD</th><th>Fmb</th><th>AV</th></tr><tr><th></th><th>Games</th><th>Receiving</th><th>Rushing</th><th>Total Yds</th><th></th><th></th><th></th><th></th><th></th><th></th><th></th><th></th><th></th><th></th><th></th><th></th><th></th><th></th><th></th><th></th><th></th><th></th><th></th><th></th><th></th><th></th><th></th><th></th><th></th><th></th><th></th></tr><tr><th><a href="https://www.pro-football-reference.com/years/2018/" target="_blank">2018</a></th><td>23</td><td><a href="https://www.pro-football-reference.com/teams/gnb/2018.htm" target="_blank">GNB</a></td><td></td><td>13</td><td>1</td><td>0</td><td>1</td><td>1</td><td>7</td><td>7.0</td><td>0</td><td></td><td>7</td><td>1.0</td><td>7.0</td><td>100.0%</td><td>7.0</td><td></td><td></td><td></td><td></td><td></td><td></td><td></td><td></td><td>1</td><td>7.0</td><td>7</td><td>0</td><td>0</td><td>0</td></tr><tr><th><a href="https://www.pro-football-reference.com/years/2019/" target="_blank">2019</a></th><td>24</td><td><a href="https://www.pro-football-reference.com/teams/gnb/2019.htm" target="_blank">GNB</a></td><td></td><td>13</td><td>16</td><td>3</td><td>52</td><td>35</td><td>477</td><td>13.6</td><td>3</td><td>24</td><td>43</td><td>2.2</td><td>29.8</td><td>67.3%</td><td>9.2</td><td>1</td><td>21</td><td>0</td><td>1</td><td>21</td><td>21.0</td><td>1.3</td><td>0.1</td><td>36</td><td>13.8</td><td>498</td><td>3</td><td>0</td><td>4</td></tr><tr><th><a href="https://www.pro-football-reference.com/years/2020/" target="_blank">2020</a></th><td>25</td><td><a href="https://www.pro-football-reference.com/teams/gnb/2020.htm" target="_blank">GNB</a></td><td>wr</td><td>13</td><td>10</td><td>9</td><td>46</td><td>33</td><td>451</td><td>13.7</td><td>3</td><td>23</td><td>72</td><td>3.3</td><td>45.1</td><td>71.7%</td><td>9.8</td><td>2</td><td>17</td><td>0</td><td>1</td><td>19</td><td>8.5</td><td>1.7</td><td>0.2</td><td>35</td><td>13.4</td><td>468</td><td>3</td><td>0</td><td>5</td></tr><tr><th><a href="https://www.pro-football-reference.com/years/2021/" target="_blank">2021</a></th><td>26</td><td><a href="https://www.pro-football-reference.com/teams/gnb/2021.htm" target="_blank">GNB</a></td><td>WR</td><td>13</td><td>15</td><td>13</td><td>60</td><td>40</td><td>513</td><td>12.8</td><td>8</td><td>28</td><td>42</td><td>2.7</td><td>34.2</td><td>66.7%</td><td>8.6</td><td>3</td><td>32</td><td>0</td><td>2</td><td>14</td><td>10.7</td><td>2.1</td><td>0.2</td><td>43</td><td>12.7</td><td>545</td><td>8</td><td>0</td><td>5</td></tr><tr><th>Career</th><td></td><td></td><th></th><th></th><th></th><th></th><th></th><th></th><th></th><th></th><th></th><th></th><th></th><th></th><th></th><th></th><th></th><th></th><th></th><th></th><th></th><th></th><th></th><th></th><th></th><th></th><th></th><th></th><th></th><th></th><th></th></tr></table>��</blockquote>
