This offseason, the Green Bay Packers will have a lot of decisions to make. One of those will undoubtedly be bolstering the Packers’ offense and continuing to position Jordan Love for success. The young core that currently surrounds Love is off to a fantastic start. Christian Watson (when healthy), Romeo Doubs, Jayden Reed, Luke Musgrave, and Tucker Kraft comprise an inexperienced yet strong group.
Having said that, the Packers might benefit from adding a seasoned presence or two on offense while remaining committed to their unofficial “youth movement.” That is precisely what a current Buffalo Bills wide receiver is capable of.
The Green Bay Packers are reportedly interested in young Buffalo Bills wide out
Bleacher Report’s Joe Tansey explained how this may happen:
Despite not gaining a yard in three of the last four games, Gabe Davis would be the Packers’ receiving yards leader in 2023.
Davis, who has 595 yards this season, could be on his way to replacing Stefon Diggs as the No. 1 wide receiver.
The 24-year-old may not be having the finest regular season, but his postseason efforts may make him more valuable to certain teams.
Davis had a 100-yard game last season against the Miami Dolphins and 201 receiving yards in a divisional-round thriller against the Kansas City Chiefs two years ago.
Davis has the potential to be a No. 1 target, but he needs to be a more consistent pass-catcher in December and January if he wants to be a free agent.
If the Packers love him, they may not want him to produce at a high pace since that would raise his price.
Regardless, the Packers should be looking for individuals in the pattern of Davis and Higgins who can be the No. 1 wide receiver for a long time and develop with Love and the other wide outs on the team.
Will the Green Bay Packers pursue a wide receiver in free agency?
Jordan Love is surrounded by an extremely talented young core. Adding a 24-year-old veteran to this team, however, may be big. The Packers will likely focus on other positions this season after investing heavily in wide receivers in the previous two selections.
The Packers may be best served by signing a free agent like Davis and addressing other areas of weakness through the draft to plug as many holes as possible.
Obviously, the Packers’ 2024 salary cap will be a factor (as it always is).
