Could Cincinnati WR Alec Pierce be the next second round WR for Packers?
Davante Adams, Jordy Nelson, Randall Cobb and Greg Jennings. All wide receivers that the Green Bay Packers have selected in the second round of the NFL Draft. Drafting wide receivers in the second round was the late great Ted Thompson’s bread and butter.
The Packers haven’t selected a wide receiver in the second round of the draft since selecting Adams with the 53rd overall pick in the 2014 draft.
With Adams, Allen Lazard, and Marquez Valdes-Scantling all set to be free agents following this season, the Packers could select a wide receiver in round two of the 2022 NFL draft.
A player that they could target in the back end of the second round is Cincinnati’s Alec Pierce.
