Tetairoa McMillan, Emeka Egbuka, and Matthew Golden are all projected first-round picks, and the Packers hosted each during the pre-draft process. Given the current state of Green Bay’s receiver corps, 2025 is the most likely year for the team to draft a wideout in the first round since Brian Gutekunst took over as GM.

The likelihood that wide receiver Christian Watson will miss much of the upcoming season creates a dilemma for the Green Bay Packers as they make their draft plans.

The Packers haven’t selected a wide receiver in the first round since taking Javon Walker 20th overall in 2002. It would be quite the story if they finally took one that early the year Green Bay hosts the draft.
