1. Wide Receiver

Wide receiver was and continues to be the biggest need on the Packers’ list. They have a stud in Davante Adams, but very little after him. Despite the signing of Funchess, guys like Allen Lazard and Jake Kumerow are underwhelming and best served as third-options at best; not the second threat they played last season.

Fortunately, wide receiver is a deep position in this year’s class and Green Bay should be able to get a year one difference-maker at the end of the first round.

Wide receivers who could be available at no. 30 include, but aren’t limited to, Denzel Mims, Justin Jefferson, Tee Higgins, Laviska Shenault, Brandon Aiyuk and Michael Pittman. Jr. Each has its own pros and cons the Packers must weigh. It will be exciting to see if they use a first-rounder on a wide receiver for the first time since 2002.
