Mizzou Football: Ten NFL teams for wide receiver Emanuel Hall

Green Bay Packers

Round 3, Pick 75

In addition to the final team on this list, the Green Bay Packers seem solidified at the wide receiver position. In 2018, Davante Adams recorded his third consecutive season with at least 10 touchdown receptions while hauling in 111 receptions for 1,386 yards.

Marquez Valdes-Scantling stepped up as the team’s No. 2 wide receiver, catching 38 passes (two for touchdowns) for 581 yards, good for 15.3 yards-per-reception, second on the team for players with at least 20 catches.

First on that list was rookie and 22-year-old Equanimeous St. Brown, a sixth-round pick out of Notre Dame, who caught 21 passes for 328 yards, a 15.6 average. The team also brings back 32-year-old tight end Jimmy Graham.

And yet, adding Emanuel Hall to big-armed quarterback Aaron Rodgers’ arsenal seems like one heck of an enticing option for Green Bay. While he wouldn’t supplant Adams or Graham as Rodgers’ go-to receiver, he would push both Valdes-Scantling and St. Brown for those deep balls, and could reasonably surpass their two combined touchdown catches from a year ago.

The NFC North is currently an arms race with the Bears reaching the top in 2018, the Vikings entering year two with Kirk Cousins as the starting quarterback, and the Lions looking to turn the corner in year four under general manager Bob Quinn. Then there’s the Packers with first-year head coach Matt LaFleur and a 35-year-old quarterback.

Time is running out in Green Bay, and expending the No. 75 pick on the speedster Hall would at least help in the short-term.
