Best remaining free agents for Packers: Julio Jones

The Packers have been linked every now and then to wide receiver Julio Jones, but nothing ever seems to gather enough steam.

Green Bay added some speed at the wide receiver position through the draft and could go a different route with a free agent signing. Jones doesn’t have nearly the same speed he once possessed, but he’s a big body who can be a third-down and red zone threat. He can use his size advantage to box out smaller corners and make himself a big target for Aaron Rodgers. His production has been diminishing for a few years now and he needs to get healthy. But if he can get his body right, this has upside for the Packers.
