2020 Wide Receivers

[Bretsky]

Are we still good at WR everyone? Is everything still swell and going as planned? Trust the process? We’ve seen and been around for years? This is nothing new for us?

We haven’t even started camp.

Our receiving depth sucked with Funches. It sucks worse today

AROD is currently surroounded with the worst top 4 WR talent I can remember

[Bretsky]

We have zero competition going on at the receiver position. That’s just completely unacceptable.

I think we got a lot of competition. We have a legit #1, a #4, and a whole lot of #7's vying for six spots on the roster

[GB-Brandon]

Kumerow is 28.5 years old, 12 receptions in 2019, and no upside. I will take just about anybody with a glimmer of hope.

Agreed. That’s how bad it is. Brian Gutekunst shouldn’t be allowed to ever have his hands anywhere near any personnel decisions regarding an NFL franchise. Either he has no clue what he is doing or he is completely mis-using his power. This is how teams become like the “New York Jets.” That is what you are watching here in real time.

This whole thing is so bad that it looks like pure “Sabotage”. He must really dislike Aaron Rodgers. There is zero excuse for this. Virus or no Virus. He has completely failed to sufficiently address what many thought was the no.1 need heading into the offseason.

Were basically sitting on the same receiving Corp now minus Allison plus the CFL guy. It’s mind blowing!!

And the Packer are supposedly interested in Everson Griffen? Lmao!!! Total joke. Yeah that’s all we need is another guy to fill into a log jam of 3-4 edge rushers. That would be a total “Gute Move”!! Priceless!!

Release Funches and take his signing bonus back.

Release Funches and take his signing bonus back.

Nice try, he opted out and is protected. He should be. Vikings got fucked worse than that with Pierce but I fully support the dude.

[GB-Brandon]

Looks like Allison Opted our for the Lions too. Might be last man standing if this thing even takes off.

Starting to seem that way for sure.

What a Pipe Dream!! Would be great if by some miracle it works but once again completely irresponsible for this to be the big Plan/Hope heading into last 1-2 years of Rodgers era.

[GB-Brandon]

Gute couldn’t help himself from heading back over to another Blue Light Special again over at K-Mart!!!

I'm not suggesting that it was wise to pin their hopes on just the existing players plus Funchess, put I do think expecting a lot from ESB is much more than just a pipe dream. I thought ESB was head and shoulders above his fellow rookie WRs at the end of 2018, not so much statistically, but in his awareness and readiness. He made some really good plays at critical times, with good hands, fighting for contested balls and working the sidelines. I thought he played like a player who should have been drafted much higher. I know from his college days at ND that he is a very hardworking, dedicated player, who will put in the work.

The bad thing is that even if ESB does make a huge step forward, they need at least one more to do so, too. Doesn't need to be another WR, it could be one of their TEs. They need at least three good, reliable options game in and game out. Others can take turns "flashing" for games now and then, but three have to show up all of the time.

Things are not remotely as bad as the negativists make out. St. Brown sounds like a decent chance of being good; Lazard should have a break out season; Valdez-Scantling admittedly is a longshot and probably bust, but he ain't hopeless either as a 4th or 5th best WR. Funchess I don't have much hope for, but who knows. I checked on this guy Fulgham in hopes that maybe they finally picked up a burner ...... but no, just another plodder with fair size. Begelton is not nothing also, based on his past performance. And I, for one, still like Kumerow. All that mediocrity or maybe better, plus a top 3 or 4 in the league in Adams, we aren't that bad off.

Funches isn’t even playing in 2020.

Right, they need jumps from 2 out of the 3 young WR’s or a jump from Sternberger along with “Staying Healthy”.

While anything is possible the probabilities tell me this is just too much to ask.

Bum No.2. He really can’t stay out of K-Mart!!!

I guess we can kiss signing AB good bye.

Stop being reasonable. It's either the end of the franchise, or they're winning it all. You can't be somewhere in between.
