While Claypool has certainly struggled since his rookie season, he’s a big target and can probably be very productive with Aaron Rodgers, who has a knack for making receivers that much better.

Earlier this week, ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler said the 24-year-old third-year WR is “available”. The 3-3 Packers are still feeling the sting at wideout this year after losing Davante Adams, who was traded to the Raiders and Marquez Valdes-Scantling, who signed with the Chiefs. With a young quarterback in Kenny Pickett, the Steelers want to give him as many weapons as possible, so if the Packers want Claypool, they’ll have to give up some picks.

Aaron Rodgers needs a weapon if the Packers are going to make any noise this season.
