Alshon Jeffery has had an interesting two-year stretch.

In 2015, a number of injuries prevented Jeffery taking off and he only played in nine games that year. And this past year, a four game suspension and inconsistent quarterback play caused Jeffery to have his lowest catch, yards and touchdown total since his rookie season in 2012.

So it might be time for Jeffery to start over with a new franchise and while the Green Bay Packers don't have a huge need for a receiver, Jeffery would be a very nice complement to Jordy Nelson. Here's a closer look at Jeffery.

2016 stats: 52 receptions, 821 yards, two touchdowns 15.8 yards per reception

Pro Football Focus has named Jeffery as the top receiver in free agency. Here's what PFF had to say about Jeffery.

Grading at an elite level in an injury-depleted 2015, Jeffery had high expectations under the franchise tag in 2016 that he didn’t live up to. Injured again for four games this past season, Jeffery recorded a career-high drop rate of 8.77 and his lowest catch rate since his rookie year, at 56.5 percent. Also recording a career-low in touchdowns, Chicago quarterbacks threw seven interceptions when targeting the former South Carolina Gamecock. Jeffery just turned 27 years old, and when healthy, he can be a dominant wide receiver. Staying healthy, though, is key, and his injury history will dampen the market for him, but his ability and size will still land him a sizable contract this offseason.

Because there will be a number of teams going after Jeffery and he will be asking for a top-dollar contract, the Packers' chances of signing him are slim. However, if Jeffery wants to take a discount and play for a contender, then the Packers should make a strong push for him.
