Who Will Be Packers Top Overall Receiver?

[Joemailman]

Scoring: 1 point per reception/.1 point per receiving yard/6 points per TD reception/2 points per 2 point conversion reception.

[Joemailman]

I think the WR's will split up WR numbers enough that Kraft will emerge on top with 60+ receptions, 800+ yards and 7-9 TD's.

I went with Reed, because unless Wicks eliminates his drops, Reed is going to be the main WR target for at least the first half of the season. I like Golden, but it's rare for a WR to shine right out of the gate. Doubs has that concussion history that makes me think he won't play the whole season and maybe not past this year at all. Watson is going to be out for a while, and who knows what he will be when he returns. By the end of the year I expect that it will be Reed and Golden as the clear 1-2.

Joe's prediction for Kraft seems plausible, but I think Reed gets 70+ catches and 1000+ yards

Kraft is probably the safest bet. If it turns out to be Golden, that's either really good news or really bad news. Reed seems like a solid choice. I'd say Doubs is the obvious least-likely choice. Maybe Wicks will surprise. That would be good.

It depends a LOT on who stays healthy and who doesn't. I picked Golden. I agree, Kraft is the safe choice. But if he stays healthy, especially with the described format, I wouldn't count out Doubs.

[Joemailman]

People may think Kraft is the safe choice, yet I believe Packers have never had a TE lead the team in receiving. He's my pick, but history would suggest that one of the WR's will emerge.

Reed had a ton of drops also. On top of that the type of WR that Golden steals the most action from would be Reed.

I actually think its the "safe" choice of Kraft given the scoring you put forth. Plus I think he gets 4 rushing TDs if you are counting those.

Wicks gets open but drops way to many balls.

Reed doesn't get open enought.

We should also have a poll of WR's only as that would be interesting.

I would think if he stays healthy this one has to be Kraft

If its just WR I'll actually go Wicks since I think he will be focused on catching the ball and he already gets open better than the rest.

[sharpe1027]

Doubs is my pick. Can he stay healthy? Maybe.

[texaspackerbacker]

I didn't vote for Doubs, but he certainly would be one of my top choices. I doubt his chronic concussion thing becomes a factor, and hopefully he doesn't suffer the bad luck of some other injury.

We are indeed fortunate that there are so many good choices here - potential top level receivers = great depth.

There’s a lot of curious information floating around about Doubs. Some seem to think he may be the odd man out in the near future.

This is the last year on Doubs rookie contract, so unless they are convinced they want to give him a new contract, or at least that he is going to be a critical piece for a Super Bowl run, it makes sense that they would listen to offers.

Ain’t surprisingly, O’Day voted for Harvey Wallbanger’s redneck cousin, Tuck Kraft. If this poll existed in 2010, O’Day would vote for the unproven J-Nel or the underdog, Brett Swain, over the likes of J-Mike, Jennings, Driver and Jones.

Joke aside (maybe), I reckon, watching Kraft breaks tackles gets me feeling like a homo erectus during mating season. Until Kraft, there ain’t been a TE with the kung fu to break tackles in the Green and Musta Yella since my boi, J-Mike.

Why I am using words like “ain’t” and “reckon,” I ain’t sure. I ain’t even from the south. Hell, ain’t ever been farther south than Washington, D.C.

Joke aside (maybe), I voted for ole Romeo. Contract year. Should be extremely motivated. About time Romeo slay Tybalt. Yes, I am sophisticated enough to reference Shakespeare.

Apparently Matthew Golden Shower is turning heads at camp. Incredible hands, good moves. Hmm.
