- - - The Green Bay Packers added a receiving weapon for quarterback Aaron Rodgers in Todd McShay’s latest mock draft for ESPN. - Penn State wide receiver Jahan Dotson was McShay’s pick for the Packers at No. 28 overall in the first round. - From McShay: “Aaron Rodgers and Davante Adams are back! Great news for Green Bay. But now the Packers have to capitalize and go all in on this offense. Marquez Valdes-Scantling is a free agent, and Rodgers could use another receiver he trusts. Dotson is undersized at 5-foot-11 and 178 pounds, but he has speed (4.43 in the 40-yard dash), suddenness (36 inches in the vertical jump) and great ball skills (91 catches in 2021). He could be a true possession receiver to complement Adams, who was franchise-tagged on Tuesday.” - The obvious question here: Would the Packers use a first-round pick on a receiver just under 5-11 and 180 pounds? Green Bay hasn’t picked a receiver in the first round since 2002, and Dotson certainly doesn’t fit the mold of the team’s standard receiver prospect. - At the combine, Dotson ran the 40-yard dash in 4.43 seconds, hit 36″ in the vertical leap and finished the three-cone drill in 7.28 seconds. His Relative Athletic Score was only 5.94. - - Jahan Dotson is a WR prospect in the 2022 draft class. He scored an unofficial 5.94 RAS at the Combine out of a possible 10.00. This ranked 1038 out of 2557 WR from 1987 to 2022.
