Packers prefer Senior Bowl wide receivers under Brian Gutekunst

The Green Bay Packers have specific size, athleticism and past production metrics they take into account when drafting certain positions, and arguably no position is better defined than wide receiver.

It might be time to add another piece to the pre-draft puzzle at receiver: Senior Bowl participation.

Consider this: the Packers have drafted or signed 10 wide receivers (including all three from the 2023 draft) who participated during the Senior Bowl since 2018, the first year under general manager Brian Gutekunst.

Here’s the list:

Jayden Reed
Dontayvion Wicks
Grant DuBose
Christian Watson
Romeo Doubs
Bo Melton
Amari Rodgers
Travis Fulgham
J’Mon Moore
Allen Lazard

The list includes seven of the team’s 10 draft picks at wide receiver since 2018.
