Jayden Reed

Do they think, "Eh, he's the third guy.

We just gave Jayden Reed a new contract.

We just gave Christian Watson a new contract.

He's gonna be the other guy"? That could very well be true as well.

I'm not really that in on him, but the opportunity could be there.

Um, it was one of my ones that I had written on my list.

I kinda had Jayden Reed slash Matthew Golden as the guys that I'm watching, 'cause I wanna see who the guy is in that second wide receiver spot.

We know Christian Watson will be.

So I expect Jordan Love to be absolutely airing this ball out, and this Packers offense has some chemistry with these wide receivers.

I mean, Christian Watson, Jaden Reed, Matthew Golden in his second year.

I wouldn't say...

You know, they don't have this like star-studded wide receiver one, but just kind of up and down the room, they got good depth, guys who know how to make plays, and obviously we all know Jordan Love can sling the rock.

Um, they have kept his passing attempts down in the past because the, the offense has been on the ground like we were mentioning, and that's sort of the foot it's been led with, and then Jordan Love sort of cleans up with, with, with the receiving core, whatever.

But in this game, you need to win through Jordan Love if you're Green Bay, and he does have the talent to do that.

And th- those three wide receivers you were talking about, uh, Leighton, in the matchup against the Vikings defensive back field, the, the, uh, pack- or the Packers sloughed off, uh, Romeo Doubs and Dontayvion Wicks, uh, over the off season, so now you have the solidified starting trio of Christian Watson, Jaden Reed, and Matthew Golden.

And of course, Tucker Kraft there as well.

Uh, here's another one that I got.

Matthew Golden or Jaden Reed, who do you trust more? This one is a little bit tricky because I don't really trust either of them if I wanted to answer the question accurately.

But rankings-wise, I do have Jaden Reed ranked ahead.

Now, long-term, I still think it is gonna be Matthew Golden because what we saw in the preseason is Golden was staying out there in two wide receiver sets, whereas Reed was coming off the field.

That was the issue with Reed in the past.

So I am putting Reed into flex territory.

I have-- I, I-- Golden is like right on the edge of flex territory, but, um, trust is a strong word with both of them.

So if I had to choose one, it's, uh, it's definitely Jaden Reed.

So I, that immediately makes me want to, and I think Coker is the highest upside way to do that, uh, compared to guys like, uh, Wan'Dale Robinson.

The only other guy down there that I, has, I've been legitimately considering down in that sub 5K wide receiver range is, uh, Jayden Reed.

Um, we can talk a little bit, uh-

I like that, yeah

Like, he can shut down the best of offenses if things are clicking, if he's calling the right situational, uh, plays.

Things can also be exposed on that back end.

Um, I mentioned Jayden Reed earlier.

I'll get into the why now.

I, I hate to say on week, in week one there's a lot riding on it, but seemingly there's a lot riding on this game, at least from the attitude of the fans, you know, in the fan base.

If Jordan Love can get time, this is the first time that he's had Christian Watson, Jayden Reed, and Matthew Golden all on the field the same time.

That never happened last year because of Jayden Reed's, uh, you know, collarbone injury.

So he's got those three weapons.

If he can just get a little time and then get these guys on the same page in that noisy environment at US Bank.

in the weeks ahead.

Uh, but we are also gonna lean in on Tucker Kraft, Matthew Golden, Jaden Reed, Christian Watson, Bo Melton, and so much more offensively.

Packers and Vikings, 3:25 on CBS.

Minnesota is a one-and-a-half-point favorite.

I ended up going with Tucker Craft, just a whole bunch of Tucker Craft, just because of how good he was in the first half.

But Jaden Reed, Christian Watson, Matthew Gold, and Tucker Craft, was there a receiver that you were higher on or you thought there was some opportunity or was undervalued?

Not really because I see it being so tight between all of them.

They're all going to be on the field a lot.

Ryan, is this? Yes.

Which Packers wide receiver dropped his first attempt at a catch in the NFL, helping set the tone for a disappointing season-opening loss to the Vikings in 2022? Was that Christian Watson, Jaden Reed, or Romeo Drops? I think it was A.

It was A, Christian Watson.

Indeed it was.

And this Packers offense has some chemistry with these wide receivers.

I mean, Christian Watson, Jaden Reed, Matthew Golden in his second year.

I wouldn't say they don't have this star-studded wide receiver one, but just kind of up and down the room, they got good depth, guys who know how to make plays, and obviously we all know Jordan Love can sling the rock.

So I'm just worried, can this secondary – Pass off guys in zone.

And he does have the talent to do that.

And those three wide receivers you were talking about, Leighton, in the matchup against the Vikings defensive backfield, the Packers sloughed off Romeo Dobbs and Dontavian Wicks over the offseason.

So now you have the solidified starting trio of Christian Watson, Jaden Reed, and Matthew Golden.

And, of course, Tucker Kraft there as well.
