The Jordan Love period has showedup in Green Bay. While Aaron Rodgers hasn’t been formally traded to the New York Jets, the deal is a matter of when, not if. The Packers are moving forward with Love, a 2020 first-round choice who will go into his 4th NFL season as a novice starter and the follower to a future Hall of Famer.
So, how can the Packers most assistance Love next season? A first-round choice might definitely make a distinction.
The personnel at Packers Wire addressed the concern: Who is one first-round possibility who might offer Love with the most assistance as he starts his beginning journey in 2023?
Ohio State Buckeyes broad receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba (11)
In 2008, Aaron Rodgers had Greg Jennings and Donald Driver as go-to receivers and James Jones (second year) and Jordy Nelson (rookie) as establishing secondary weapons throughout his veryfirst year as the brand-new beginning quarterback. In 2023, the Packers needto do their finest to surround Jordan Love with a comparable type of young and skilled cast. Christian Watson and Romeo Doubs supply a strong structure, however there’s more work to be done at receiver. What would most assistance a first-year beginning quarterback? A pass-catcher who can regularly different. Smith-Njigba is a master path runner with the elite speed needed for getting open on time, specifically from the slot. Team JSN with Watson and Doubs and perhaps a veteran or draft choice at tight end, and the Packers will have sufficient weapons readilyavailable in the passing videogame around Love.

Since Jermichael Finley, Green Bay has attempted frantically to discover a practical getting tight end. Rather than going the totallyfree company path onceagain, perhaps it’s time to choice one with their first-round choice. Listen, I would be surprised if the Packers did this, however their tight end space is diminished. I understand not numerous tight ends have an instant, though Kincaid is a person who has the prospective to be efficient in the passing videogame right away. Not to discuss, he would make life a lot simpler for one Jordan Love. At 6-4, 250 lbs, Kincaid would be a big target for Love over the middle. He likewise has a reputable set of hands and is capable of making objectedto captures. Kincaid isn’t simply a huge body, either. He is a fluid path runner who can play in-line, in the slot or out broad. It’s been far too long because Green Bay has had a tight end with that kind of flexibility. And when he’s not getting the ball, Kincaid can stretch the field to open things up for other men beneath. It’s about time the Packers had a tight end who can tension defenses and gather that type of attention. As a first-year starter, Love requires to be surrounded by as much skill as possible, and Kincaid may be the finest pass-catcher in the whole draft.
