The Packers’ wide receiver world is flat

Because not even the Packers themselves are aware of who their really best receiver is,

the Packers are unbeatable on defense.

The Packers are invincible on defense because even they are unaware of who their really best receiver is.

Turpin, who measured at the combine at almost 5-9 and an almost astounding 158 pounds,

is mostly a gadget player and kick returner. With all those touchdowns, the second-year player proved to be very productive in his short sample size addition to the Cowboys receiving corps.

However, at 27 years old and in his first season in the NFL,

he will never be expected to contribute as a regular receiver due to his size.

Since it can occasionally be simpler to create special teams value than real on-field value,

many teams use the end of their squad for pure special teamers and gadget players like Turpin.

Luke Schoonmaker, a rookie,

is the second tight end for the Cowboys after Jake Ferguson. He has caught 8 of his 15 targets this season for a pitiful 8.1 yards per reception.

Pro Football Focus is likewise unimpressed with his blocking.

When the Cowboys are on the field, you can expect to see a lot of Ceedee Lamb, a generous helping of Ferguson,

and some Brandin Cooks, who is currently 30 years old and obviously out of step from his days in Houston,

Los Angeles, New England, and New Orleans. And when you cover the Cowboys, you first cover Lamb.

You commit resources to Lamb. After that, you assist the men on Lamb.

Then Ferguson comes to mind. And that’s basically it.

On the other side, Bo Melton,

a wide receiver selected by the Green Bay Packers in the seventh round out of Rutgers,

who was first selected by Seattle in the 2022 draft, has the fifth most targets for the team.

After making his way onto the Packers practice squad,

Melton replaced the underwhelming Samori Touré on the active roster. Despite being a little undersized,

Melton is a fantastic athlete who is closer in size to a standard slot receiver than Turpin.

Melton is fifth in targets,

but he has only appeared in five offensive games overall, including the Dallas playoff matchup.

Melton caught only 16 balls on 24 targets during the regular season, but over the course of 17 games,

he was on track to catch 68 balls on 102 targets.

More significantly, though, Melton was 18.4% over average in terms of DVOA,

a statistic that gauges a player’s effectiveness per play.

That would indicate that among pass-catchers,

it would be the third-highest number.

Melton would rank 13th overall, one position below CeeDee Lamb and his 18.9% DVOA, if he had enough receptions to qualify.
