Andy is FIRED up. I’m living for it.
Yes, Tom Grossi should always be in the #1 wide receiver convos
Every👏🏿single👏🏿year😂
I was saying all last year that we are waaay more dangerous without a true WR1. Defenses don't know who to focus on because Love can drop dimes to all of them. I love it!
Coached basketball for 37 years ....when asked "who is your go-to guy", I would reply "whoever is open".
The way I see it, the Packers have several number 1 WR's. A plethora of riches.
Psychologically it makes it much easier on Jordan love not having a big contract guy he feels he needs to get the ball to.
Idk why but I feel more confident in Doubs becoming that “#1 WR” bc of what he did in the playoffs
I've said it all along. I'd rather have 5 Doubs than 1 Adams. The complexity of the offense and how to defend it is so hard. Five 500-700 yard WRs is better than two 1,000 yard WRs. Look at Dallas when Lamb wasn't effective, they were doomed. We have a legit 5 guys that can make plays, they all can be special. They are cheap and talented, nobody knows how this will work out, that's why it works. The defense doesn't know either. Who is getting the snaps, who is getting the opportunities, who will be the man? Who cares, just use them all and keep all of us guessing. Fantasy guys will hate it but the team will be better because of it. I don't care who it is or if there is one at all. Lets just let Lafleur and Love use em all, all the time. Love had 4,200 yards with nobody near 1,000 yards. I didn't even mention the TEs who are really special too. This offense should be a mystery and a joy to watch.
Well stated, on all the points.
Don't forget Heath. Dudes an animal
Love is showcasing all these receivers. That's a rare talent in itself.
I agree! No WR1 means teams can’t double just one receiver
no reason to even talk about BR and their hypothetical trades its just click bait. no way GB would trade any of their WR with having to sign love to a massive extension.
100%
The idea The pack would trade Reed, Doubs and a 2nd rd pick for Lamb is fully insane
A+ Tom Grossi name drop
Beautiful! We wouldn't be in the position we're in were it not for Brian Gutekunst. Is there a better GM in all of football? I think not.
Hell yeah startin Friday off right!
I will be disappointed if we are not a top 5 offense. If the line holds, its gonna be an amazing season!
100% spot on. So much so, in fact, that I don’t want the Packers strategy/situation, which should be the envy of the league, to be discussed as the desired template. Let these teams keep going in circles with their goofy ideas. Packers will take it from here baby!
Love a good Andy Herman rant❤
Hey just finding this channel! Love the content man
Andy giving a sermon on a 100% pure dose of The Truth. FDA approved!
All that evidence and even barely a mention on TEs and not even in the context of developing as a #1. Our 2 TEs have the ability to be top 10 TEs in this league, and some of those guys are #1 go to options for teams over the years.
I think of this team as being 7 deep. No receiving crew is even remotely that deep. You can line up 5 of these guys, and teams will have to play soft zones out of fear of getting burned. You couple that with our run game and watch out. This offense is ready to eat.
You can't have 5 receivers and a running back in the game at the same time. They don't allow more than 11 to play at a time. Also. there is only 1 football.
@@kathykorbel1101 that's not what I was inferring, but thank you for introducing me to basic 1st grade math.
I’ll take 5 number 2s over one number 1 and a bunch of 3s and 4s
I agree 100% with u Andy, WE DONT NEED A #1 WR!!!! We have 5 WR that can have huge impacts for us, not to mention also having Kraft and musgrave. We have too many weapons at WR & TE for opposing defenses to try and stop all of them. The great thing also with have a plethora of weapons is that keeps opposing defenses on their toes and they don’t know which player is going to have a massive game. Matt Lafleur is gonna have. A lot of fun draw up plays for this offense
Andy, you are 100% correct in my opinion. If Jordan runs Mat's offence they way it is designed and the OL keeps Jordan clean, the Packers will more often than not, score points AND control the tempo of the game. MLF calls it something like Available Pass Catchers. As allways great show Andy.
Hang on a second, Andy, if we can have Grossi as our #1. We gotta take it! The thought of passing up on Grossi is just insanity.
I definitely agree with you that Tom Grossie should not be our number one wide receiver.
Beautiful work!
Super interesting to hear stats from some of the great Packer’s receivers compared to current guys, Andy. Great content. I love you
How about the #1 wide receiver room. Depending on the play; who gets the lead.
Number #1. The man who gets the ball.. this was the downward spiral of ARod s tunnel vision
Christian Watson scored 4 touchdowns in a span of 3 games. So did Dontayvion Wicks in a different span of 3 games. Jayden Reed led the team in receptions and receiving yards, but by just 5 catches and 119 yards over Romeo Doubs. Romeo Doubs tied Jayden Reed for the team lead in touchdowns and had his 1st career 100-yard game for the playoffs. Bo Melton had the 1st 100-yard game of anyone in 2023, in week 17 at Minnesota. Malik Heath caught a go-ahead TD pass with 2 minutes to go in a game, the only one to make that claim. For now, the expectation is the passing offense will continue to share the wealth, with the tight ends and running backs in the mix, too. What helps make that work is each receiver is an obviously deep corps brings something a little something different to the different, but at the same time, each can be asked to line up in any given spot to run any given route, and produce. Not necessarily having a go-to-guy free’s Jordan Love’s mind as well, allowing him to just “play the play,” as he says. He can go through his reads, let it play out, and find the open guy. He may have an inkling based on a particular matchup who’s about to get open, but he’s not forcing the ball to any 1 teammate due to preconceived notions. Those prospects become even more intriguing this year as both Jordan Love and his receivers build off of all the experience they gained as young players finding their way a year ago. As Jordan Love got started at QB1, Christian Watson and Romeo Doubs were just in their 2nd seasons, with Bo Melton in that same draft class but getting his 1st NFL action. Meanwhile Jayden Reed, Dontayvion Wicks, and Malik Heath were all rookies. Nobody’s at ground zero anymore. The key for Matt Lafluer and his coaching staff is to maximize on that and keep pushing all the young talent to its limits. When the Packers made their late-season run last winter, all that youth wasn’t so young anymore, and the better they learned the playbook and its nuances, the better they connected with one another. As best they can, they’ve tried to pick up where they left off heading into the new 2024-25 NFL season. This summer and early fall will be a better gauge whether they succeeded in doing so, but getting there in good shape is the current goal. The combination of youth and injuries created so many opportunities at wide receiver last season the Packers ended Jordan Love’s 1st year without a true #1 wideout. So 1 question is if anyone will emerge as the go-to-guy. Another is if anyone actually needs to. Count Jordan Love and Matt Lafluer in the no-worries camp. After Tuesday’s QTA practice, they both indicated it doesn’t really matter to them as quarterback and play-caller, and they’re both much more focused on the sum of the whole at the position than any individual parts. Go Pack Go 💚💚💛💛
Not having a “number 1” in this offense is a nightmare for defensive coordinators. You have 4-5 receivers who could “WR1s” which means defensive coordinators can’t roll coverage to one specific receiver. I guess Watson would get it because of his talent.
Lol, a Ceedee Lamb trade would be an absolute joke. Watson, when healthy, is legitimately the most feared WR in football. He’s been the most double AND triple covered WR since he entered the league because of how dynamic he is and his speed for his size. Dude is comparable to Tyreek Hill in speed but he’s 6’4” and can go up and get the ball. That’s a DANGEROUS player right there! If he can hopefully and finally stay healthy, he opens our offense up SO much! And now we’ve got Jacobs, Lloyd AND Dillon that defenses have to account for.
Absolute MASTERCLASS team building by Gute and Co over the past 3 off seasons.
And not to mention our other slew of playmakers. This team as is, has Super Bowl all over them! This might be the most complete team in franchise history. They just need to put it all together and it’s an absolute dynasty!
Where did you get the stats that he's the most doubled and triple-teamed I would like to see that.
@@TyreeTravels forgot where I saw it but I saw it at the end of last season with Rodgers, when he actually played. Defenses absolutely fear Watson.
Look up on Google Watson most doubled wr in the leauge
He was doubled at the highest rate in 2023 aswell
The packers DO NOT NEED a wr #1
The whole thing about a number 1 reciever is while dont get anyone wrong its good to have a superstar 1 but if you don't have other guys to throw to it becomes too dependent on them. I'd rather have a bunch of 2s than a 1 and a bunch of 3s and 4s, more formidable.
Tom Grossi as #1 WR would make us instant SB candidates
HEAR! HEAR! Brilliant production. GPG!
lol love the Tom Grossi WR shoutout xD
My main takeaway from this video is that Andy doesn't think Bill Schroeder is a legit #1 WR which is blasphemous and offensive.
Doubs catches everything and such a good guy. If we trade him I’ll be pissed. Definitely my favorite
Our offense will be downright scary! Defenses..Watch out and pick your poison! We can beat you on the ground or over the air! #Go Pack Go! 😄
Personally I find as a former cornerback myself that an offensive relievers group that you can't read where the ball is going is a headache.
TO BE PREDICTABLEY UNPREDICTABLE IS A GREAT ADVANTAGE FOR THE PACKERS.
Andy has been buying Melton, Inc stock since he was on the practice squad. He saw way back what Bo could become.
I agree with a lot of what you say, but in this case those other WR that didn’t have the numbers of these guys all had some REALLY GOOD WR ahead of them. These guys had….. none of that, and were being force fed targets.
its hard for me to say no to aiyuk. we clearly don't need him but goddamn he's probably my favorite non-packer in the league. best route runner in the league right now an being underutilized in that SF scheme. wouldn't give up the dontayvion wicks breakout for him though, wicks has every ability to get to that same level in my eyes
All the packers need to have a wr 1 is play any of their top 5 guys more and target them a ton. Won’t make the team better. Give me 5 500 yard receivers
Do not trade Watson, Wicks, or Reed. Those are the 3 that will be all number 1 receivers. It is what makes our team special. Watson healthy makes us a favorite in every game. He stretches the field more than any player in the NFL. He’s the fastest tall player in the league
Dude, we should get Ayuik with Doubs and a 2nd pick, and even a 3rd round pick the following year. With Ayuik, Watson, Reed, Wicks, Melton, and both TE’s, we will cook and win a Super Bowl. I would take our next two first round picks and go get an Elite Left Tackle. Joe Alt for how many ever draft picks would be LEGIT TOP TIER MOVE. Imagine if they go Alt Jenkins Tom Morgan and Walker (At right tackle) is an Elite, Elite offensive line. Even with 2 starting rookies, 6’9 Alt and Morgan have 2 of the best shuttle scores of all time. We could use him. We would win a Super Bowl with both or one of those trades. You don’t even need draft picks the next year with those trades. Wicks is going to be a number 1 receiver, Watson is already a number 1 he just needs to stay on the field. Reed is an elite slot receiver. Ayuik is a number 1 receiver and is tougher than anyone we have. Plus SF would do that deal. The chargers would take 2 number 1 picks and maybe 2 - 3rd round picks for ALT!
Andy settling the debate once and for all ☺️
Pack A Day Podcast. Come for the analysis. Stay for the Bill Schroeder shout outs.
I'll take 5 wr 2s over a wr 1
Did Andy use the soccer term, Number Nine for our offense. Are the opponents running in sixes and sevens
I was with you until you mentioned Grossi 🤣. The man is in his own category. He would be THE wr room as all others would be subsequently traded or released.
I think teams need a number 1 WR in order to leave another receiver open on the field. It's not a matter of scheming guys open, which any OC worth their salt can do. It's a matter of making DC's frustrated with the coverage situation. Having 4 WRs on the field who can all play ball isn't gonna stress DC's out. That's just a normal day for them.
In the case of the Packers, I don't think they have a guy who will emerge as WR1. LaFleur will use all of the WRs in various ways which will prevent any of them from being the top guy, statistically. Also, none of them are elite. Christian Watson was supposed to be the guy but he's too injured and inconsistent (kind of like Jamison Wililams on the Lions).
As a result, the Packers will be a top 10 offense, but not a top 5 offense. I don't think that this topic really matters as far as wins are concerned. I think the Packers are good enough on offense to win games. The real question marks are defense and special teams.
🐐
Why throw to one star when you have a choice of 6 at one time. We have an actual team.
As a Lions fan I have no doubt the Packers will develop a #1 WR, especially with Love playing QB.
helll ya go packers
I would rather lose with my team (players) than win with other teams players. I love our roster
That’s just foolish to propose a trade for Cee Dee Lamb with the talented young receivers they now have on this Packers’ team. All the teams in the NFL are envious of the group of young WRs GB has presently - not needing to pay one of them 30 million dollars a season.
Chiefs are a terrible example Kelce may be a TE but he’s a top 10 all time pass catcher better than almost any WR to ever play
its a passing league now
Bleacher report is absolutely the worst during the offseason. They just dartboard things that are completely unrealistic just land clicks from fans who don’t know any better.
Has there ever been a team have 4 50 catch guys?
This is probably the dumbest narrative I’ve heard all offseason.
Nonsense! Give Tom Grossi the WR1 position already
really like Dubs I want him to stay a packer
The Packers have a #1 receiver
26:43 tom grossi?

Doubs is the 1
If you think the wide receivers don't each want to be WR1 then you are being naive. They all want to make WR1 money and that's why they play the game. If one or more emerge as WR1 and you don't pay them, they will sign with someone who will.
Articles liek this are good for the block/mute list. Now I know that Brad Gagnon is kinda dumb and I dont need this kind of football takes
Tom Grossi WR1!!!!!
Bleacher report on good drugs
Doubs the 1
I wouldnt take ceedee lamb for a half chewed stick of gum.
That just shows your intelligence.
