4. WR Romeo Doubs, Green Bay Packers
Rostered: 26.1%
The Packersā wide receivers underwhelmed on Sunday, but Doubs was the teamās top performer. He hauled in four out of his five targets for 37 yards.
Doubs clearly outperformed fellow rookie Christian Watson. In the first quarter, Watson dropped an open 75-yard touchdown.

In the fourth quarter, he had a miscue on a route that almost resulted in an interception in the red zone.
Veterans Randall Cobb and Sammy Watkins did not have big games, either, as the pair had a combined five receptions for 32 yards.
Iām not writing off Green Bayās offense. Last season, the Packers lost their season opener to the New Orleans Saints 3-38, and they went on to have a top-10 scoring offense in the NFL.
Aaron Rodgers remains one of the best quarterbacks in the NFL, and Allen Lazard should return to the lineup soon.
Moving forward, Doubs is the logical number two wide receiver behind Lazard, and he carries upside in the Packersā offense, which is primed to bounce back.
