3 free agent wide receivers the Packers failed to bring to Green Bay

Wide receiver the Green Bay Packers missed on – Jarvis Landry
Jarvis Landry isn’t a player who will blow by you with amazing speed but he is a player you can always rely on. He has missed next to no games in his career often battling through injury and still producing while not being healthy. He is a player that others love in the locker room with the leadership and experience that he brings to the table.
Landry isn’t a guy that hits a ton of big plays but he has the athleticism to make people miss in the open field and fights through arm tackles. When he is healthy you have a player that will give you his absolute all on every single play. He makes for a great third-down target with his understanding of coverage and knack for finding the first down marker and finding a way to get past it.
Landry likely wouldn’t have been the No. 1 in Green Bay but he is an excellent complimentary piece that raises the overall skill level in the room. Paired with guys like Allen Lazard, and even Sammy Watkins who they did sign, he would have made a pretty solid trio for Rodgers.
