Wow.

[George Cumby]

Thanks, Joe.

Welp.

This is the burner specimen who can take the top off of defenses that I wanted.

[King Friday]

This kid will be highly dangerous in an offense helmed by Rodgers.

[red]

well, i wanted him at #22, so i guess we should be happy

i think i would have rather taken him at #28 if we wanted him that bad and keep both seconds though

[texaspackerbacker]

ALL RIGHT! This is the pick I and probably a lot of others wanted. Now we need to have him produce. I think with Rodgers at QB, we can count on that. Adams and MVS gone, Watkins and Watson added? I'll take that as a net positive in the short term and a probable large positive in the longer term ........ and we got the additional first rounder besides. Good Job, Gutekunst.

[George Cumby]

Tex, I hope you are right.

That may be the first time I have ever typed those words in that combination.

[red]

watch the end around and imagine that being added to our offence

[red]

it sure seems like you can just throw the ball as high and as far as you can, and he'll just go get it

[George Cumby]

He's returned two kicks for TD's.

Can we see him being used on 'Teams?

COME ON MAN; you can't count these two as a positive over the best WR in the NFL

yes, it may work out fine; but nobody in the universe would take Watson and Watkins over Devante Adams and MVS

Given our talent at WR I don't think we can afford to use him on ST and risk the injury. It's nice that we got a big with great speed though.

I'll bet they use him as a gunner.

I absolutely do think he will have at least as good a career as Adams. With Rodgers at QB, I could see him being as productive even early as Chase and Jefferson. And of course, he'll be excellent when Adams is just a distant memory. Is Adams even the NFL best WR now? I guess we'll find out the next couple years with the Raiders. I'm betting he's not.

I hope that's sarcasm about being a gunner. I could see him returning kicks, though.
