After Davante Adams left the team, the Aaron Rodgers-led Green Bay Packers are lacking an effective wide receiver. It is now a simmering discussion on whether the Packers can make it to the playoffs or not! How good are the Packers without an impactful wideout?

This question needs an answer, and hopefully, in the coming weeks, fans will get to know how the Packers are willing to enter the field this season. Meanwhile, the Green Bay Packers are flexing muscles with their long-time QB Rodgers, but in reality, a great WR is equally important to win games for the team.

OBJ, Metcalf & Cooks are among the top lookouts for Aaron Rodgers

According to the latest GET UP discussions on ESPN, the Packers are left with only a few top-tier receivers in free agency. While many of them have left their stations to embark on a new journey and few are still serving their contract, it is quite difficult for the Packers to make a choice. Well, if they had to, OBJ from the Rams, DK Metcalf from the Seahawks, and Brandon Cooks are some of the notable contenders.

If we look at the past few seasons, the Packers have always been a team that looks out for big names in the league. Already they have lost two top wideouts out of three in the team, and all they have left is Aaron Rodgers at the QB position. Meanwhile, the Packers also have a long tradition of surprising their fans with out-of-the-box dealings.

According to the experts, the Packers are eying cheaper deals and bag some significant players for their long-term business. And certainly, rookies will help them suffice their needs.

Star wide receivers chose other teams over Rodgers-led-Packers

While this offseason witnessed some crazy blockbuster deals, it has also paved the way for some incredible players to leave their home team. Aaron Rodgers was the winner in all aspects who bagged a lucrative deal for a contract extension. But players like Scantling leaving for the Kansas City Chiefs and Davante Adams choosing the Las Vegas Raiders already sunk the Packers’ ship to some extent.

What’s more intriguing is that the Rams WR Robert Woods, who was speculated to be a Packer this season, also left for a less competitive club. Even though he was given a choice for deciding his landing spot, Woods never made Packers his option.

Last year, Rodgers had an alleged standoff with the team for not including him in the decision-making meetings or hiring players for the season. And such miscommunications between the management and the QB often led the team to end up with big names but considerably poor results. Hopefully, before the third round, a suitable shark will get hooked to fill the WR void for the Packers.
