2. Jeremy Maclin, WR

Jeremy Maclin is the first of back-to-back receivers to finish this list off. Although he isn’t the prototypical receiver the Packers are targeting this offseason, at only 6-foot, he still has the ability to stretch the field, perhaps, better than any player on the roster.

This speedster still has somewhat of an ability to get downfield and run past defensive backs. Last year with the Baltimore Ravens, he hauled in 40 receptions for 440 yards and three touchdowns. Those numbers would almost certainly go up with Rodgers at the helm.

He’ll turn 30-years-old very shortly, making him the youngest receiver on this list so far and probably the one with the most gas left in the tank. He’ll likely be available as the calendar flips on, so the Packers can sign him if they aren’t liking what they’re seeing from their other receivers during OTAs.
