Top 10 Green Bay Packers Players of All-Time

#6 James Lofton

James Lofton of the Green Bay Packers...

James Lofton played at the Wide Receiver position for the Packers between the years of 1978 and 1986. He was drafted in the 1st round of the 1978 draft, with the 6th overall pick. He was the first NFL player to record 14,000 receiving yards, which was largely due to his fantastic 18.3 yards per catch.

His speed really troubled opposing cornerbacks as they simply could not keep up with him. He was voted to 8 Pro-Bowls and was named a first-team All-Pro in 1981. Lofton finished his career with 764 receptions, 14,004 yards and 75 touchdowns.

Lofton truly was one of the best receivers to play the game. After his retirement, Lofton went on to be the coach of the San Diego Chargers and the Oakland Raiders, as well as being voted into the Hall of Fame in 2003.
