Bold prediction for Packers’ wide receiver position this offseason: Draft one in the first round

Green Bay used a third-round selection on a wide receiver a year ago and will likely use another high pick at the position this time around. And I predict it will be a first-round pick.

The Packers desperately need to replenish their talent pool at wide receiver and this is a good class to do so in. It’s not as deep as the 2020 class, but it is still very strong at the wide receiver position. Depending on how the draft board falls, the Packers could end up with a very explosive wide receiver in the first round who can do some major damage in Year One.
