  • Packers Rnd 3 -Amari Rodgers WR Clemson

    .
    Amari Rodgers NFL Draft Profile
    Position: Wide Receiver
    School: Clemson
    Current Year: Senior
    Height: 5’9 1/2″
    Weight: 212 pounds
    Wingspan: 74″
    Arm: 30″
    Hand: 9 1/2″

    Tony Pauline’s Amari Rodgers Scouting Report
    Positives: Slightly undersized receiver who also doubles as a return specialist. Quickly releases off the line, fires into routes, and stays low on exit. Displays terrific quickness in and out of breaks and positions himself to make the reception. Extends his hands to snatch the ball out of the air and lays out to make the difficult catch.

    Reliable, possesses terrific eye/hand coordination, and nicely adjusts to the errant throw. Follows the quarterback across the field and finds the soft spot in the defense. Plays bigger than his size and fights to come away with the difficult grab in a crowd. Effective returning punts.

    Negatives: Easily taken down in the open field by a single defender. Lack of height is a hindrance, especially trying to grab high throws. Plays to one speed and lacks a deep burst.

    Analysis: Rodgers was a terrific receiver for Clemson both coming off the bench and as a starter. He comes with average physical dimensions but nicely projects as a slot wideout who can also return punts.

      Anti Gute pick. Below average athlete and short.

        This pick and Deguara last year show maybe MLF has some influence. In 3rd round anyway.

            From the highlight reel, Rodgers looks like he's versatile. One of those jack-knives that MLF can do different things with.

              Built like a running back, 5’9.5” and 212. Should be a tough runner and good after catch and fill that jet sweep position perfectly

                    Brian Gutekunst said he "immediately" turned to his lieutenants after drafting Josh Myers to see if he could trade back up and draft Amari Rodgers. They'd gone to get something to eat. Took longer than he'd like, but finally able to get back up to get Rodgers.
                    They considered drafting Rodgers at #62.

                      I sense the packers got lucky this draft. This might be a good one. I mean, all three are good football players. And great guys. And good upside. This just looks like a good, rock solid top three picks.

                        And WRs do really well from the 2nd round, historically. Polished, smart, big like a running back, able to do slot things and gadget things. Aaron should be able to make something happen with this kind of weapon.

                          I like Gainwell more. He is such a good WR he could line up in the slot just as well as Rodgers can. Plus he is a RB. Also might have gone with the other St. Brown at this point. I like him a lot too. Wasn't real high on this pick.

                              Packers just admit they don't have any clue how to draft DL and LB, so they're sticking to their strengths. Rodgers is a pretty safe pick because he's pretty likely to produce in an offense like ours and he can also return punts.
