The Green Bay Packers need to do better next year, but these guys, in particular, will have a big part in how the team performs.

The Green Bay Packers struggled last year, and that was due to a broad variety of reasons. They had some issues on the coaching staff along with their offensive scheme, and they were absolutely decimated by injuries. However, despite all that, they also had players that weren’t living up to the expectations that were set for them. 2019 has to be different because the team’s window with Aaron Rodgers isn’t going to be open forever.

They have guys that are going to develop naturally and get better this year, but they have a few guys that absolutely have to get better. Whether that’s to make sure they’re on the team next year or because they play an important role for this team. Over the last two seasons, we’ve seen the negative results of players not pulling their weight, but that isn’t what we’re hoping to see this season.

There was a number of guys that could have gotten picked for this honor, but, when all is said and done, I think we’ll agree with the way things fall. The Green Bay Packers have been a draft and develop team, and that’s what these players represent for them. These guys have to develop, or they’ll likely be lining up in new uniforms when the 2020-21 season rolls around.
