Round 3 (78): A.T. Perry, WR, Wake Forest

Another area the Packers could target in the opening two days of the draft is wide receiver. They found two starters in last year's draft -- Christian Watson and Romeo Doubs -- but lack depth after the departure of Allen Lazard and Randall Cobb in free agency.

Wake Forest's A.T. Perry would be an exciting addition to this offense.

Perry meets the Packers' size and athletic thresholds, and he has the college production to back it up. He is 6-foot-3, 198 pounds, with a Relative Athletic Score of 9.62 out of 10.

"Perry's overall mix of physical tools is rare, and he compounds it with high-level natural receiving ability when the ball is in the air," wrote Ian Cummings of Pro Football Network.

Perry dominated in his final two seasons at Wake Forest. Last season, he made 81 receptions for 1,096 yards and 11 touchdowns. In 2021, he put up 1,293 yards and 15 touchdowns on 71 catches.

He would give the Packers another red zone threat, as he proved by scoring touchdowns for fun at Wake Forest.

The Packers would now have Christian Watson, Romeo Doubs, and A.T. Perry at wide receiver, an exciting, young trio. Add in a veteran, and Green Bay would be in great shape.
