Call this Part 2 if you want, of my critically acclaimed – and defamed – post on Aaron Rodgers and his receiver relationships.
Back in late April when the Packers concluded the NFL draft without selecting any wide receivers, I was stunned – and left an emotional wreck. Over the next few days, however, I arrived at the only sensible scenario I could come up with: the Packers’ coaching staff realizes what a talent Marquez Valdes-Scantling is, and they’re banking on him having a breakout second year.
Matt LaFleur, offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett, and receivers’ coach Alvis Whitted must have gone gaga over what they saw of MVS during spring activities.
