Green Bay Packers Have Middle of Pack Wide Receiver Group

Pro Football Focus recently ranked the wide receiver corps in the NFL, how did the Green Bay Packers stack up?

Coming into the 2024 season, there are a lot of eyes on the Green Bay Packers. After a great season, the Packers are poised for great things this coming season, and everyone is looking forward to seeing what their offense can accomplish.

The great season from Jordan Love in 2023 has led many to believe that the Packers could have one of the most explosive offenses in the league in 2024. Recently, Pro Football Focus ranked all of the wide receiver corps in the league.

For the Green Bay Packers Packers, they came in ranked in the middle of the pack. Here’s what they had to say.

Three Packers wideouts — Christian Watson, Jayden Reed and Dontayvion Wicks — earned 70.0-plus PFF receiving grades in 2023, aided in no small part by quarterback Jordan Love‘s emergence.

Romeo Doubs was right below that, at 68.4, and tight ends Luke Musgrave and Tucker Kraft were both above 64.0. Green Bay lost the running back receiving ability of Aaron Jones but brought in Josh Jacobs. This is a very deep group of young pass-catchers.

While the Packers’ wide receiver corps might be ranked in the middle of the pack now, they have a lot of upside this season. With the group being on the younger side, we likely haven’t seen the best this group can offer.

For Christian Watson in particular, he looks like he can emerge as the No. 1 guy for the Green Bay Packers. Currently, the Packers have a lot of balance in their receiver group, which can present problems for opposing defenses.

With Love expected to be even better, he can help elevate the group as well. It’s understandable to see the group currently ranked in the middle of the pack. However, the Green Bay Packers’ group will likely be ranked much higher when it’s all said and done.
