Green Bay Packers: Emmanuel Sanders

Other than Davante Adams, the Green Bay Packers didn’t exactly have the most reliable group of wide receivers during the 2019 season, and it was even more clear in the NFC Championship when the team came up short against the San Francisco 49ers.

Throughout his career, Aaron Rodgers has always been the kind of quarterback who makes the players around him better, and while this could still be the case with some of the younger players, the Packers need some additional help this offseason.

Prior to the trade deadline last October, the 49ers acquired Emmanuel Sanders from the Denver Broncos to help provide some veteran presence at wide receiver, and this turned out to be a great addition.

When taking into consideration that San Francisco earned a trip to the Super Bowl this past season, chances are the team will strongly consider the possibility of bringing Sanders back for another year, especially to help the younger receivers.

But depending on the financial factor, if Sanders were to test the open market, the Packers should strongly consider the possibility.

Sanders isn’t going to post the same monster numbers other available receivers will put up, but if he takes advantage of playing alongside Adams, and pushes some of the younger wideouts, this could help Green Bay remain a top contender in the NFC.
