It seems that national writers forget about a certain receiv

who’s returning from injury when doubting the Packers’ pass-catchers."The Green Bay Packers chose to address their defense in the first round of the 2019 NFL Draft Womens Mason Crosby Jersey , selecting a pass-rusher and a safety with their two day-one picks. Then the team passed up on some talented receivers in round two, grabbing an offensive lineman in Elgton Jenkins. For some NFL writers and analysts, particularly those who cover the league at large rather than the Packers specifically, this has been painted as a mistake by general manager Brian Gutekunst. After all, the Packers have one star receiver in Davante Adams and little else.Or so they would have their readers believe.Football Outsiders, which employs a talented and intelligent collection of writers, has also made this argument. In an article published on ESPN.com this week discussing each team’s most significant roster hole, they criticized the Packers’ decisions to avoid acquiring a top receiving option either through free agency or the first few rounds of the draft. Here’s what they had to say about the Packers:There are legitimate reasons for concern in this group Justin McCray Jersey White , to be sure. Last season, a crop of rookies was forced into significant action earlier than the team likely anticipated, due in large part to a season-ending injury to Geronimo Allison. However, Allison’s return is precisely the reason why this supposed lack of depth and experience is overblown.Allison has the potential to be the true game-changer among this group, and he was doing just that last season before he landed on injured reserve. He was averaging four receptions and over 60 yards per game, numbers that jump to 4.8 and 72 if you ignore the week 7 game against the Rams (when Allison was injured for good early on). Furthermore, Allison was setting career highs by catching two-thirds of his targets and recording 10.1 receiving yards per target. That last stat, if he had sustained it over a full season Marwin Evans Jersey , would have put him in a tie for 14th among all qualifying NFL players last year. Putting those stats in contrast with Allison’s stats from his first two seasons makes it clear that he was in the midst of a breakout, which coincided with his expanded role as the Packers’ #2 boundary receiver. In 2016 and 2017, Allison averaged just 1.4 receptions and 18 receiving yards per game; those numbers tripled in 2018. His catch rate jumped ten points, up from 57%. Allison also did some of that damage from the slot, where he will likely see some more work in 2019 with Randall Cobb gone.One of the Packers’ oft-discussed issues in 2018 was a lack of trust between the Packers’ coaches, quarterback, and young receivers. If Allison, a player whom Aaron Rodgers has grown to trust Nick Perry Jersey White , had remained on the field, it’s easy to imagine the Packers’ offense functioning better. The team’s rookie receivers would have played a more complementary role, rather than being asked to step in as starters immediately, entirely changing the complexion of the offense.For 2019, however, Allison should be a focal point of the passing game opposite Adams. The development of Marquez Valdes-Scantling and Equanimeous St. Brown probably will — and should — take a handful of snaps and targets away from Allison, but downplay his return at your own peril. In the latest SB Nation mock draft, the Packers add Iowa tight end Noah Fant and Kansas State offensive lineman Dalton Risner."WhiteFanposts Fanshots Sections The APC PodcastPackers Film RoomFantasy Football AdviceCDTShareTweetShareShare2019 NFL mock draft: Packers land tight end Mason Crosby Jersey White , O-line help for Aaron RodgersMichael C. Johnson-USA TODAY SportsWith pro days and top-30 visits almost over, the Green Bay Packers and the rest of the NFL will soon have all the information available to make their draft decisions. That also means that a few mock drafts remain before the real selections occur in Nashville on April 25.As such, SB Nation draft guru Dan Kadar has projected less variance over the past few mocks. That trend continues this week, as the Packers land prospects at two positions long associated with the team.In this mock, T.J. Hockenson, Ed Oliver, Brian Burns, and most of the other top prospects linked to the Packers have come off the board. Iowa’s Noah Fant fits a need given the age and deterioration of Jimmy Graham Nick Perry Jersey , though this selections represents the perceived ceiling of his draft stock. Still, if Green Bay feels it has to exit the draft with one of the top prospects at the position, it has this option.The Packers should benefit from Dalton Risner, whether immediately or in the near future. Risner could step in as a starting guard should Lane Taylor fail to bounce back or recently signed Billy Turner disappoint, or he could become the heir apparent to longtime starting right tackle Bryan Bulaga. Risner doesn’t offer the top-of-the-class athleticism of prospects like Garrett Bradbury or Chris Lindstrom, though he doesn’t grade too far behind them. That could prove enough for Green Bay to select him here.
