Wide receivers Packers could target in first round of Draft: Jordan Addison

Addison is the top wide receiver in The Ringer’s most recent NFL Big Board at 19th overall. That speaks to the lack of playmakers at the position in this year’s draft. It’s not nearly as good as the past several drafts have been, but there are still quality players.

He’s not the type of receiver Green Bay usually targets, so it would be unlikely to see Green Bay actually draft him. He’s small for the position and lacks elite speed or athleticism to make up for it.

However, due to his high ranking on draft boards, I wanted to include him on this list just in case. He’s a good route runner and has solid hands. He also has good bursts of speed that help him separate from defenders. In the end, he’ll have to go to the right team to succeed.
