adam Posted August 18, 2022 Report Share Posted August 18, 2022 Shocking that the WR Corps would drop off when you lose the one player who was receiving 40% of the targets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stinger226 Posted August 18, 2022 Report Share Posted August 18, 2022 Rodgers will find someone to throw to. RBs will be seeing a lot more throws. Lizard and one more will step up. They will be focusing on running the ball a lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Without Adams, Rodgers per game passing yards is 160 yards and a 1/3 of his TDs went to Adams. Sammy Watkins is now their #2 but he has only had 1x 1000 yd season in his entire career (2015) and has had one season with 50 or more receptions in his last his last 6. He is more like a WR#3. Cobb is their #3 and hasn't been relevant since 2015. It is pretty comical how far this unit has fallen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daventry Posted August 18, 2022 Report Share Posted August 18, 2022 Hard to pay wide receivers when the QB is sucking up so much of the cap money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately, they have Amari Rodgers, Christian Watson and Romeo Doubs waiting in the wings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always thought it was hard to evaluate skill position players from smaller schools who are just bigger or faster than their competition. Watson is one of them. 6'5" from a small school where you can just dominate the competition with size. Shaheen did the same thing as a TE.

AZ54 Posted August 18, 2022 Author Report Share Posted August 18, 2022 I liked both Watson and Doubs but both were limited in route running skills and it will just take time. It couldn't have helped Watson to miss time with the knee surgery but I'm not complaining. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
