ESPN published a list of their projected top-50 free agents available for the 2026 offseason, which includes many Green Bay Packers at the top of the rankings.

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.

While Packers South is getting a lot of attention, Packers East is starting to develop, too. If you haven’t heard, former Green Bay […]

In its 2026 projection of the NFL’s Top 100 players, Sports Illustrated has shined a spotlight on what some see as a scarcity of elite talent for the Green Bay Packers.

The Green Bay Packers continue to see vacancies pop up on their defensive coaching staff this week, but Matt LaFleur and Jonathan Gannon are hard at work filling them as they appear.

Coming into Wednesday, the Green Bay Packers had lost defensive coordinator Jeff Hafley, linebackers coach Sean Duggan and defensive backs coach Ryan Downard to the Miami Dolphins.

For the most part, teams that play a quarters system at the NFL level usually like to play with a 3-4 front. Personnel doesn’t matter as much when teams are in their nickel sets, but it does when they’re in their base defense — which is usually what defensive coordinators call to match multiple-tight-end or […]

The Green Bay Packers’ hiring of Jonathan Gannon as their defensive coordinator will likely bring about changes to the structure of the Packers’ defense. As highlighted on this website by our own Justis Mosqueda, the Packers will almost certainly be transitioning from Jeff Hafley’s predominantly single-high or two-high spin structures back into a predominantly split-safety […]

Packers fans who love the NFL Draft are in an interesting predicament this offseason. On the one hand, the Packers have no first round pick this year (or next) thanks to the Micah Parsons trade. That makes the top end of the draft significantly less interesting. But on the other hand, the Packers’ lack of […]

Decision points always create questions, and Matt LaFleur’s decision to hire Jonathan Gannon as his next defensive coordinator will be no different. There is plenty to question, too, though we won’t know the answers for a long, long time. Was Gannon the right hire? Only time will tell. Should LaFleur have gone with soe of […]

After taking on some potential cap casualties that could result in actual roster movement, we’re now firmly in what I’d gently refer to as the “bad news” portion of this project. Elgton Jenkins? Probably gone, and for understandable reasons. Same goes for Rashan Gary. Even Josh Jacobs might make some sense. But as much anger […]
