Dream free agent wide receivers for Packers: Jakobi Meyers

Meyers is the best wide receiver free agent on the market and would represent a different type of receiver than Green Bay already has. Where Chark would be doubling down on existing strengths, Meyers would diversify their skill set.

The bad news is Meyers is one of the slowest wide receivers in the NFL. The good news is he doesn’t need that speed to create separation from defensive backs. He’s one of the better route-runners in the entire NFL, allowing him to use attention to detail to create space.

His hands are also a strength. He’s only dropped 3.1 percent of his passes over the last three years, the ninth-best rate in the NFL. That, along with his 6-foot-2 frame makes him a trusted target for quarterbacks.
