Candidates to be Packers no. 1 WR: Odell Beckham Jr.

Candidates to be Packers no. 1 WR: Jarvis Landry

Candidates to be Packers no. 1 WR: Will Fuller

Candidates to be Packers no. 1 WR: T.Y. Hilton

The Packers have the ability to clear some cap space if they choose, but it might not be worth it to sign a now limited class of free agent wide receivers.

Beckham Jr. has the highest ceiling on this list, but he’s also coming off a torn ACL from the Super Bowl and won’t be ready until midseason. Would Green Bay risk waiting that long?

Jarvis Landry, Will Fuller, and T.Y. Hilton are all better suited as no. 2 or no. 3 options, but Green Bay might not have any better choices. The most realistic option is the Packers try to pluck a free agent off the market for a discounted price and go into next season with a hodge-podge of receivers.
