The Green Bay Packers added not one but three wide receivers in the 2022 NFL draft to help offset the loss of Davante Adams and Marquez-Valdes Scantling. The group is headlined by Christian Watson, who the Packers selected 34th overall, making him the team’s highest draft pick at wide receiver in 20 years. Two rounds later, they took Romeo Doubs, a potent deep threat out of Nevada. So far, the early returns on Doubs have been good, leaving many people optimistic about what he can bring to Green Bay’s offense.
Not many wide receivers can say they finished their college careers with back-to-back 1,000-yard seasons. Thanks to catching passes from a strong-armed prospect in Carson Strong, Doubs became one of the most explosive playmakers in the country. However, just flip on the tape, and you will see Doubs is more than a product of his talented college quarterback, who is now with the Philadelphia Eagles.
Standing at 6-2 and weighing around 200 pounds, Doubs has an ideal build and is also a good athlete. He ran around a 4.50 in the forty at Nevada’s Pro Day. General manager Brian Gutekunst is especially excited about Doubs, calling him one of the more polished guys in the draft.
