Jayden Reed

The Green Bay passing attack is wide open after Christian Watson. Reed will be a starter immediately and should have no problems hopping Romeo Doubs in the pecking order. Reed is a good fit for this offensive system with his strong lower half and YAC ability. He should allow easy completions for Jordan Love with the talent to do something with the ball in his hands. He flashed better route running chops at the Senior Bowl in Mobile than I gave him credit for after examining his college film. Grab him at the end of your drafts. He's worth a stash and hold to see how this Packer offense unfolds. He could easily be a weekly flex play that pays huge dividends as we move through the fantasy season.

The Green Bay Packers have selected WR Jayden Reed with the No. 50 overall pick in the 2023 NFL Draft.

Fantasy Impact

The Packers have now added two pass catchers for Jordan Love. Reed will give the Packers a versatile option at wide receiver who can also use his speed on kickoffs and punt returns. Thor Nystrom has Reed at No. 120 overall and WR17 with an NFL comparison of Russell Gage on his Top 500 big board.
