2. Allen Lazard

Allen Lazard started last season on fire–13 receptions for 254 yards and two touchdowns in the first three weeks–before missing the next six games. He never quite got back to that level upon his return but was still a major part of the offense. He finished the year with a respectable 33 receptions for 451 yards and three touchdowns in 10 games.

If he stays healthy his overall numbers are likely to rise next year, but his per-game numbers will drop. Green Bay returns their top wide receivers plus Devin Funchess and third-round pick Amari Rodgers. That’s a couple of new weapons for Rodgers to spread the love to and will decrease Lazard’s role on this unit. Oh, and I’m predicting Marquez Valdes-Scantling to have a MONSTER season.
