Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love (10) throws a pass to wide receiver Romeo Doubs (87) during the first quarter of their game on Sunday, September 29, 2024, at Lambeau Field in Green Bay, Wisconsin. The Packers’ passing attack didn’t quite meet expectations in 2024. Love finished with 3,300 yards and 25 touchdowns, but missed about three games (two due to injury and nearly all of the Bears’ Week 18 game), leaving those numbers in the middle of the pack.
Offensive upgrades are likely a key priority this offseason, and one player is gaining significant attention.

Projected to be a Day 2 pick, Ayomanor is a great fit for the Packers as it allows them to focus on defense in the first round.
Standing at 6-foot-2, Ayomanor is more suited for an outside receiver role, filling a pressing need for Green Bay. Watching his highlight reel, comparisons to Packers legend Jordy Nelson are easy to make. He is an expert route runner with a combination of strength and speed.
In terms of his fit with Green Bay, Ayomanor excels in those areas and is also a tenacious blocker who will fight through defenders and impose his size on them. He would make an excellent Day 2 selection for the Packers.
