I’m not sure whether Jonathan Gannon will be a good, poor, or medium defensive coordinator for the Green Bay Packers. It is, in fact, virtually impossible to tell how good or bad any defensive coordinator is without an insanely long track record. Jeff Hafley coordinated the seventh-best defense in the NFL (by DVOA) in 2024, […]

After touching on Elgton Jenkins, Rashan Gary, Josh Jacobs, Keisean Nixon, and Nate Hobbs, my tour through potential cap casualties in Green Bay concludes with a look at Aaron Banks.
