1. Justin Jefferson, WR, LSU

It’s no secret Green Bay needs a pass-catcher in one of the first two rounds. Other than Davante Adams, Aaron Rodgers has very little to work with. It appears they’re going to rely heavily on second-year player Jace Sternberger. Sternberger is an unknown commodity after barely playing in his rookie year. Wide receiver isn’t any better with Funchess currently penciled in as the number two guy.

Justin Jefferson caught 111 freakin’ passes at LSU last year and can handle a lot of targets. He also added 1540 yards and 18 touchdowns to support the monster year top prospect Joe Burrow had.

He’s a true slot receiver and could fit in nicely with Adams and Funchess or Allen Lazard on the outside. He also brings some speed to the Packers’ offense, something they desperately need. He’s great at making contested catches and does a tremendous job getting YAC as well. He could be the boost in the arm the Packers need.
