Did he get inured in 2022?

So why was I supposed to not like him? Why was I liking AT Perry but not Wicks?

No. He just didn't produce. 30 catches and 430 yards in 2022

No. Coach and scheme change. Sounds like that hurt his opportunities.

slow 40? But people say he has a good 2nd gear. Wins contested catches. Sounds ok to me.

Good pick in the 5th. Decent feet, great eyes, great vertical, good hands, great body control. Building pass catchers that all do different things

A boundary/possession guy with a good feel for the position, where we lack bodies or his skill-set. May not be the most exciting WR prospect, but I can dig the pick at this point in the draft. Getting a guy who can give you solid depth/snaps at a thin position is nice use of a mid.

Just listened to Jake Morley's podcast from this morning. He said the Packers will likely end up with Wicks today.

He nailed it

Man. Watching his 2021 highlights is a lot of fun. I was definitely too lazy on this guy. I didn't give him the time of day but he is exciting to watch. And I take back my slow comment.

I’m not anti Wicks. He’s just meh to me.

He’s slow on tape. He a role player. He’ll be fine.
