Cheese Curds, 4/8: How likely is it that the Packers will draft a wide receiver?

The wide receiver position has almost always been a strength of the Green Bay Packers' offense in the recent past, going back as far as the early 1990s. From the days of Robert Brooks and Antonio Freeman to Donald Driver and Greg Jennings and now Jordy Nelson and Randall Cobb, Packers quarterbacks have rarely wanted for more targets to throw to on the boundary.

This season projects to be no different. Nelson returns from injury while Cobb should be back at 100%, plus the four youngsters at the position hope to expand their roles in 2016. However, Thompson's drafts have always seemed to add receivers at the right time, before we thought they would be necessary. Look at Montgomery's selection last spring, Cobb's in 2011 (when the unit of Jennings, Nelson, Driver, and James Jones was in its prime), and others.

So no, don't rule out Ted drafting a wideout at any point in the Draft. You never know how the board will fall. In today's curds, we look heavily at that situation and the receiver position, with a couple of prospect breakdowns thrown in for good measure.
