Packers WR has a similar trajectory to Davante Adams in terms of….
REEN BAY, Wis. – The Green Bay Packers are having a disappointing season and their former second-round receiver is struggling through his second year. Perhaps it’s time to move on or, at the very least, take away some of his playing time and targets.
After the 2016 NFL Draft, the esteemed Milwaukee Journal Sentinel suggested that Davante Adams was among the receivers “battling for their lives” because of the likes of Ty Montgomery and fifth-round draft pick Trevor Davis. Adams, a second-round pick in 2014 who had a dismal 2015, might have to make his mark on special teams to stick around for a third seasons.
“Christian is not without blame,” Wajed, who as hard-hitting safety Tim Watson was drafted by the Packers in 1993. “Sunday was his first true drop, and he has to make those plays. Additionally, I want to see him be more physical and aggressive at the catch point and start bullying these smaller DBs.”
As a rookie, Watson during the team’s first nine games caught 10-of-14 passes for 88 yards. During the final eight games, he caught 31 passes for 556 yards and seven touchdowns. He had the monster game against Dallas with 107 yards and three touchdowns to start his prolific second half of the season, and was by far the Packers’ best player in the season-ending loss against Detroit with five catches for 104 yards
