Davante Adams not a lock to make Green Bay's roster
Green Bay Packers wideout Davante Adams is not a lock to make the roster for 2016, says the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel.
In breaking down the Pack's crowded receiver corps, reporter Tom Silverstein labels Jordy Nelson and Randall Cobb as the only "sure things," although it's probably safe to add Jeff Janis to that list. It would ultimately be surprising if Adams couldn't crack the 53-man roster, but he was one of the worst regularly-featured wideouts in the league last season, averaging a stunningly-bad 9.7 yards on 50 catches.
Still only 23, Adams has youth and his 2014 draft capital (No. 53 overall) working in his favor. He was terrible in 2015, though. Among the 48 receivers to see at least 80 targets, he ranked 47th in Reception Net Expected Points per target in 2015.
