Packers: 3 weapons to draft for Jordan Love and stick it to Aaron Rodgers

Weapons the Packers can select in 2023 NFL Draft to stick it to Aaron Rodgers: Jordan Addison, WR, USC

Finally, Green Bay could use that first-round pick coming in at no. 13 overall, to draft Jordan Addison out of USC.

Disclaimer: If Jaxon Smith-Njigba is available, he’s the pick.

Addison, though, is one of the very best route runners in this year’s draft, right next to Smith-Njigba. He works the middle of the field very well and understands how to get open for his quarterback, which is especially helpful when playing with a mobile quarterback like Love.

His production went down after transferring from Pittsburgh to USC, but the whole body of work he produced in college, combined with his Combine performance, should easily see Addison drafted in the first round. In fact, if the Packers were targeting Addison, they might even get him a few picks later if they opted to move back.

For the entirety of Rodgers’ career in Green Bay, the Packers not once drafted a first-round wide receiver. It would speak volumes if the organization did so in the very first draft of the post-Rodgers era.

Packer fans would not only love a move like this for the sake of the team’s future, but also due to the fact that, yes, this indeed would be a “stick it to Aaron” moment, if ever there was one.
