MOm was a Packer fan.
He could end up in front of Watson to start the year. Has to learn to use his size off the line, but I like the way he uses his hands to catch -- and he makes the catches MVS had us holding our breath on.

Romeo Doubs has some f'n legit film... I think he could be one of the steals of the draft Good size/speed. Rolls off LOS. Good burst/acceleration. Excellent tracking/high point. Minimal drops on HIGH volume of targets. Plays thru contact/competes in route. Patient/set up routes.
Speed kills.
-According to PFF, he had four drops (4.8 percent), averaged 4.0 YAC and had 12 receptions on passes thrown 20-plus yards downfield.
-His contested-catch rate was an excellent 60.0 percent.
-According to Sports Info Solutions, he forced 15 missed tackles per 100 touches, good for 25th out of 46 receivers it ranked in the draft class, and was 14th with 10.0 yards per target.

Where are his parents?

I'm thinking a Thanksgiving dinner with Rodgers and Bakh might be in his near future.
How about a July 4th dinner? Get 'em earlier.
Saw video highlights on GBPG website and was really impressed with this kid. Seems like every clip was a third down and long play and he always came up with a grab, often in tight or contested situations. I think he has a chance to have an impact fairly quickly. BTW, was also impressed with his QB.
So will Doubs play for 8 years in Green Bay, putting up huge numbers and then decide he wants to go to SF to play with Trey Lance?
That would be just fine with me.
Dubs may make an impact before Watson, and I see Dubs has a lot of Lazard in him. Big guy who can block and catch the ball. I know! Make him a TE!
All I know is hopefully one of these WRs makes an impact this year.
Name should be pronounced Doobs !
Only if Shaggy is calling games.
Don't see a repeat of the J'Mon Moore debacle with the pick.
To the contrary, it's been an excellent week. The Packers are very stupid at picking WRs, and they have consequently wasted the careers of two of the greatest quarterbacks in NFL history. I laugh at the dummies. Meanwhile, Brady knows why he has all those rings, and he knows the Tampa Bay WR corps sucked in th eplayoffs, including their Super Bowl win. How to tell:
Kaylon Geiger - < 5'10"
Deven Thompkins - < 5'10"
Jerreth Sterns - < 5'10"
He wants a Troy Brown/David Patten/Deion Branch/ Wes Welker/ Julian Edelman so he can win one more ring.
Something tells me it was at this moment Everson Walls was wishing Dwight Clark was 5â9â

Yes...Mike Evans, Chris Godwin and Gronk sucked. As did Randy Moss, Megatron, Sterling Sharpe and Jordy for their respective teams.
I think weâre going to like this Dubs cat.

I'm excited to see what the Georgia boys do, but Doubs is really intriguing to me.
I know, it's highlights... but his catch radius seems broad. High, low, behind... also, seems like a smooth route runner. Looks effortless.
He and Watson could make a very good 1 / 2 in a year or so[ooner].
JJ said he reminds him of Greg Jennings.
Guessing it's his play on the field where the comparison to Jennings comes in.

I wouldn't be surprised at all to see Doubs in the passing game before Watson. If Doubs can contribute in the pass game and Watson is your Jets Sweep gadget guy/blocker then that is some solid additions to the offense when it's needed most.
Who the hell knows what Amari Rodgers brings to the table right now. If he actually becomes productive then there's another boost.
I've read some encouraging things regarding Amari. Hope it's true, but who knows at this point?

I know I get turned on to some players and hope they work out but from what I have seen so far of Amari I feel he is on his way out.
As far as Amari goes, he was disappointing but as a former 3rd round pick, I would expect heâll be given every opportunity to compete for playing time at slot WR position. Maybe with a full year under his belt he starts to play somewhere closer to what he was his last year at Clemson.
They need a reliable backup there with Cobbâs significant injury history.
Apparently he's a bit of an introvert. I'm pretty excited for these guys. On the face of it, it was a pretty good draft.
Humble, serious, I think he will be a positive addition.
What a sweet, earnest kid he seems to be.
Aaron better not be a dick to him.
Aaron can be a dick to almost everybody.
FYI, in his rookie season, MVS had 581 receiving yards from AR.

OFFENSE
WR ROMEO DOUBS, GREEN BAY PACKERS
With Davante Adams out of the fold, it was no secret that Aaron Rodgers had one of the worst receiving rooms in the NFL heading into the draft. The team simply had to do something to help fix that, and they came out with North Dakota Stateâs Christian Watson in Round 2 and Nevadaâs Romeo Doubs in Round 4.
Both pass-catchers are expected to be marquee pieces to the Green Bay passing offense. And while it wouldnât be a surprise to anyone if Watson produces in Year 1, it would be a surprise if Doubs steps up this year, given his standing as a fourth-round pick.
The former Nevada receiver was a big-time vertical threat in college because of his long speed and ball tracking. The 6-foot-2, 204-pound wide receiver led college football in deep receiving touchdowns (15) from 2020 through 2021. With Adams and Marquez Valdes-Scantling â who combined for 52 deep targets in 2021 â changing teams this offseason, there will be plenty of downfield targets to go around. Both Watson and Doubs could put up solid numbers in this offense, considering their skill sets.
