Packers: Three wide receivers they should trade for this offseason
A look at three wide receivers the Green Bay Packers should consider making a trade offer for.
Zero. That’s the number of wide receivers selected by the Green Bay Packers in the 2020 NFL Draft. Also, the number of mock drafts with the Packers not selecting a receiver (probably). But the need is still there for Green Bay and one that Brian Gutekunst needs to address over the summer.
But it’s not because Gutekunst doesn’t see a need at receiver. According to Peter King of NBC Sports, he tried to trade up for a receiver in the second round of the draft. But once his top targets were off the board, he decided against it.
Maybe Devin Funchess will have a bounce-back season. Or Marquez Valdes-Scantling. Maybe Equanimeous St. Brown will prove to be the missing piece. But the Packers shouldn’t be counting on it happening. There’s every chance we see a repeat of 2019 at wide receiver. Davante Adams dominating but the Packers not finding consistent production from any other pass catcher.
After failing to draft a player at the team’s biggest position of concern entering the 2020 season, Gutekunst needs to be proactive in the coming weeks and months.
One possibility is finding some receiver help via a trade. Here are three players they should consider making an offer for.
