The Green Bay Packers' regular season has come to a close, and although it didn't end with the Lombardi Trophy coming back home, I'm sure most will consider this season a success. Think about it, Green Bay went from missing the playoffs back-to-back seasons to all of a sudden totaling 13 regular season wins, winning the NFC North, securing the NFC's No. 2 seed, and they ended up just four quarters away from the Super Bowl. Not bad, if I do say so myself.

However, as good as this season was, we all saw in the NFC Championship Game that the Packers still have a little ways to go if they want to be true Super Bowl contenders. Yet a big reason for them being in the position that they were in was because of the moves Brian Gutekunst made last offseason. Well, now the 2020 offseason has now arrived and once again, there is work to be done.

So to help Gutey out, I've gone ahead and put together my to-do list for him. Now of course, like many to-do lists, not everything may get done right away and I certainly don't expect each addition to be a top-end free agent or a high-end draft talent. With that said, if a majority of these iteams can be taken care of, it will hopefully help get the Packers back to the Super Bowl - also keep in mind that these are in no particular order.

1. Re-sign Bryan Bulaga and Mason Crosby

The Green Bay Packers have 21 pending free agents and these two fall into my category of "must re-sign." At the moment I don't believe that Bryan Bulaga's replacement is currently on the roster, to be honest, I'm just not a fan of Billy Turner sliding over. And it's not like tackles grow on trees, it's a premier position and they are coveted, so who would they bring in instead of Bulaga at a reasonable price?

Although he has caught a lot of flack for injuries over the years, Bulaga is on the field far more often than he is not and when he is, he's usually playing at a high-level. In fact, this season in 612 pass-blocking snaps, Bulaga allowed just four sacks and four quarterback hits. Keep in mind that this was up against some of the best edge-rushers in the NFL. Pay the man, bring him back, and draft his replacement to sit and learn behind him.

Then we have Mason Crosby who had a fantastic bounce-back season in 2019 as he'd make 22/24 field goal attempts and he'd go 40/41 on extra point tries. Just take a quick scan around the NFL and look at how difficult it can be to find a reliable kicker, or go ask our friends in Minnesota and Chicago. The Packers shouldn't think twice about bringing Crosby back.

2. Add 2 or 3 new WRs to the mix

Last offseason Gutey overhauled the edge-rusher and safety positions, now it is time for the wide receiver. We all know Davante Adams is a certified stud and while the emergence of Allen Lazard was greatly needed, he's not a true No. 2 receiver. Then after these two we have a lot of question marks. The Packers still aren't sure what they have in Equanimeous St. Brown, Marquez Valdes-Scantling all but disappeared, Jake Kumerow is fine, and pending free agent Geronimo Allison just flat out struggled. The good news, is that this is a great draft to address this positional need. But let's be sure to give Aaron Rodgers another weapon or two moving forward.

3. Get Faster at ILB

I think it's safe to say that Blake Martinez won't be back in Green Bay. While he was durable and always around the ball, he had his limitations as well. Instead Gutey should be looking to bring in some speed to the position and someone more capable in coverage to better suit today's NFL. A few early names in the draft to keep your eyes on include Kenneth Murray of Oklahoma and Patrick Queen of LSU. In fact, I'll probably end up highlighting this item because it is an important one that needs to be addressed.

4. Add CB Depth

Green Bay has a great foundation in Jaire Alexander and Kevin King, not to mention that we also had a surprise breakout season from Chandon Sullivan. Yet after those three, we once again have some unknowns. Tramon Williams is nearing 37-years-old and is a free agent - although I wouldn't mind him back at the right price - meanwhile, the team clearly doesn't trust Josh Jackson, and we don't know yet what they have in Ka'dar Hollman. Whether it be free agency or in the draft at some point, bringing in a corner that could step in and play some snaps if needed isn't a bad idea.

5. Find Bulaga's Replacement

I mentioned this previously when discussing Bulaga, but it gets its own spot on this list because I think it's that important. For the most part I've already highlighted the importance of this position and that I don't think Bulaga's current replacement is on the roster. So this offseason I would love to see Green Bay spend one of their first three picks on the position in the draft so that player can sit and develop for a year or two before taking over. I don't think that the answer to this problem will come via free agency.

6. Extend Kenny Clark

With every passing game this season I'm pretty sure Kenny Clark's price went up. While he won't be a free agent until 2021, the Packers shouldn't let it get that far. Actually, they shouldn't even let it get into this upcoming training camp and preseason. Clark is an integral part of this defense and it goes without saying just how good he really is. And that means that giving him a new contract should be done sooner rather than later.

7. Get Kenny Clark some help

Speaking of Clark, let's get him some help inside this offseason while we are at it. Not to take anything away from Dean Lowry and Tyler Lancaster as they are nice players and if they are your third and fourth options, you're doing pretty well. However, when they are your second and third options, you're going to be exposed at times as we saw this season.

Although as a unit they had their moments, for the most part this defense was gashed in the run game and much of the damage happened between the tackles. Addressing the ILB position will help in this area as well, but Green Bay should be bringing in someone else to add to that interior defensive line to take some of the burden off of Clark.

8. Sign a veteran TE

I do think that the future of the tight end position is in good hands with Jace Sternberger and I expect Robert Tonyan to be back in 2020 as well. Both have shown flashes in the passing game and that they are willing blockers. With that said, this is one of the more difficult positions when it comes to transitioning from college to the pros, so I think that there is a lot of value in having a veteran presence alongside of these two. And I don't mean just to mentor them, but with how Matt LaFleur uses tight ends, this player is going to see the field too. And one veteran who comes to mind is Marcedes Lewis, who has already stated that he would like to return to Green Bay.

9. Move on from Jimmy Graham and Lane Taylor

From the looks and sounds of it Jimmy Graham may retire, but with it not being official, let's pretend he intends to play in 2020. As good as Gutey was in free agency last offseason, he missed on Graham in 2018 and now it is time to move on. Which if they do, it will save them $8 million in cap space that can go towards another player. In 2020 the Packers owe Graham $11.6 million, however by cutting him, the dead cap hit is only $3.6 million, thus saving them the aforementioned $8 million.

Meanwhile with Lane Taylor, he is still a capable starter and comes with a team friendly contract. But that same contract is a little too pricey to have him sitting on the bench, so trading Taylor is the best course of action. While he will likely net them a late round draft pick, moving on from Taylor will also save the Packers an additional $4.6 million in cap space. For a team that still has some needs to fill, freeing up nearly $13 million between Graham and Taylor is a no-brainer.

In total I have nine items on my to-do list, some bigger than others, but all hold an importance. Like I said above, the more of these that Gutey can checkoff, the better off this Packers team will be in 2020.
