It’s been a rough couple of years for the Green Bay Packers and their supporters. Aaron Rodgers led his team to the NFC Championship game last year. However, he failed to lead his team to the Super Bowl game as they fell to a 37-20 loss at the hands of Kyle Shanahan’s San Francisco 49ers. One of the major criticism directed at the Packers was their lack of depth in the wideout department.

The Packers were expected to strengthen in that regard this offseason. They were rumored to have been in contact with a number of rookie wide receivers that appeared in the 2020 NFL draft. However, the Mark Murphy-led organization opted to trade up and bring in rookie quarterback Jordan Love instead.

Packers supporters and players were left dumbfounded after this decision by senior management. Star quarterback, Aaron Rodgers said he was ‘surprised’ by that move in an interview last week. Now, Packers WR Davante Adams opened up on the subject to the team’s official website.

“A lot of the (young) guys we have now are starting to come into that,” Adams said, moments after listing all the things – such as improving physically, getting comfortable in the offense, mastering the finer details and getting on the same page as Aaron Rodgers – that once helped fueled his rapid progression as a young player.

“We’re going to be in a really good spot going into the year. It’s no secret, we were all expecting a receiver to be drafted, but that wasn’t the case,” Adams told PackersWire via USA Today.

Adams heaps praise on young Packers wideout

Over the course of the interview, Adams went on to talk about promising wide receiver Allen Lazard. Lazard had a breakthrough season with the Packers in 2019.

“Allen Lazard is one of the guys that, he’s shown he’s a really talented player on the field and he’s coming into his own confidence-wise. Once you start to have that true confidence, once you start to believe you’re a really, really good player, and you know your role on the team and all of that.

“That’s when you start to have an Allen Lazard. He’s a lot more confident. The coaches have obviously shared that with the media, the rest of the team. I’m really excited to see that,” Adams further said.
