WR Drafted in Round One

Someone did a QB's drafted over 2005 through 2017 in round one and said only two are with the team that drafted them. I was curious about WR's. It looks like only two are with the same team out of 45.

Of course WR's do not have the same shelf life as QB's, I still expected more to have remained with their drafted team.

There is a ton of movement in FA and trades now. So I'm not sure you can judge a guy based on weather he's with his original team or not.

There's been some rumblings about a few WR's who are not attending VOLUNTARY workouts with hopes of getting a new contract.

Deebo Samuel 36th overall
AJ Brown 51st overall
DK Metcalf 64th overall
Terry McLaurin 76th overall

Are you noticing a trend? All were drafted 2nd or 3rd round. Why would a team pay them top dollar in a draft that is said to be heavy with WR talent?

Someone on Tweeter said, "Deebo, McLaurin, Metcalf, & AJ Brown all getting drafted after first round in 2019 and wanting new deals at same time hurts them in sense that some teams will do math and think “we’ll just draft one”."

I have to agree with that.

In other words Packers fans, we will not be trading for one of the aforementioned WR's and if we don't draft one in round one, fret not, there's good pickings in round two and three.

The player who lead the league in receptions and yards and TD's last season, he was drafted in the third round.

Cooper Kupp
145 receptions
1,947 yards
16 TD's

Again, I repeat, if the Packers do NOT draft a WR round one, DO NOT FREAK OUT!!! be cool ya'all

If we take a pass catcher high, I hope it's a TE.

Ok, I'm done giving these clowns attention. My mistake.

I want Brian to take who he feels are the best players available, and players that will make the Packers stronger when he makes his selection/s in round 1.

I also have no problem with Brian packaging picks and moving up above the Saints to select Chris Olave at #15.😏

beast (8-Aug) : But the Packers would have to use one for their return from IR spots on him, when they cut down to 53.
