In order to instantly make the Packers’ secondary better, more pressure must be made on the quarterback.

The NFL comes down to two things: 1. Having a quarterback and 2. Having a guy that can disrupt the quarterback.

While just about everyone was gushing about Saquon Barkley’s strength and speed in the Underwear Olympics also known as the NFL Scouting Combine, Harold Landry was also making a name for himself.

According to Pro Football Focus, Landry has been graded as the best edge rusher prospect. That’s better than LSU’s Arden Key, NC State’s Bradley Chubb and Texas-San Antonio’s Marcus Davenport.

His Combine numbers were so special that his 6.88-second 3-cone drill time for the 252-pound Boston College standout were amazing. There has only been six defensive linemen drafted in the first round that clocked a time under 6.9 seconds. Those guys are: DeMarcus Ware, J.J. Watt, David Pollack, Melvin Ingram, Joey Bosa and T.J. Watt.

The reason why the 3-cone drill is interesting is because it showcases how well a player can bend and maneuver corners.

What stands out to me is that Landry doesn’t give up on plays. Even when he gets stood up for over three seconds like he did vs. Virginia Tech. He still had the awareness to chase down Hokies quarterback Josh Jackson from behind and make the sack.

The Packers’ starters were among the worst in quarterback hurries last year. Drafting a guy that led the nation with 18 sacks this past season on 69 quarterback pressures would be like putting a defibrillator on the defense and shocking it back to life.

CBS Sports has Landry going to the Packers at 14, which I think would be a steal. Granted, his run defense has been a question mark, but in a passing league, you have got to stop the passer first.

But it doesn’t stop there. The Packers are kicking the tires on reuniting seven-year defensive lineman Muhammed Wilkerson with first-year Packers defensive coordinator Mike Pettine. Remember, this comes on the heels of coach Mike McCarthy saying at the Combine, “I’m sick and tired of our defense feeling like the stepchild.”

Well, McCarthy, two moves like this would completely reset the defense. A unit like this and the defense won’t be an afterthought anymore. No longer will the goal be to win games 35-28 thanks to the right arm of Aaron Rodgers.

The first piece is Landry. Ironically enough, Ted Thompson gave Capers a quarterback seeker in Clay Matthews in 2009. Now it is all lining up for new general manager Brian Gutekunst to replay the same scenario by taking the best edge rusher in the draft.

The Packers won’t be disappointed. Landry is better at this moment than Matthews and adding him could mean that Matthews gets shifted to inside linebacker — whether he likes it or not.

The quickest way to fix the defense is by rushing the passer and Landry will be great. He will be so good that Green Bay cornerbacks won’t be a punch line anymore, because quarterbacks won’t consistently have that much time to carve them up.

No need to overthink this one. Pettine needs an answer and Landry solves a lot of problems.
