Packers offensive line in top five of PFF rankings for 2022

Pro Football Focus has ranked the Green Bay Packers’ offensive line inside the top five ahead of the 2022 season.

Crucial to the success of the Green Bay Packers‘ offense in recent years has been the performance of the offensive line.

Even after losing veterans Billy Turner, Lucas Patrick, and Dennis Kelly this offseason, the Packers’ offensive line is still expected to be one of the best in the league.

Ahead of the 2022 season, Pro Football Focus’ Mike Renner has ranked the top five offensive lines in the NFL. He has Green Bay at No. 5.

It is hard to have too many arguments with this list.

The Philadelphia Eagles and Cleveland Browns both have excellent offensive lines, and the Detroit Lions should be applauded for how they have strengthened their line in recent years.

The Packers’ offensive line has sky-high potential but does feature some unproven players like rookies Sean Rhyan, Zach Tom, and Rasheed Walker.

The talent is there and the Packers have a good blend of experience and youth.

Returning from injury this season is five-time All-Pro left tackle David Bakhtiari. If he can get back to his best, edge rushers won’t enjoy much success against the left side of Green Bay’s offensive line.

Pro Bowler Elgton Jenkins could miss the start of the 2022 season as he recovers from an ACL tear, but he should make his return at some point. He will likely play at right tackle with Billy Turner gone, but he could also play any other position if needed.

Josh Myers, the Packers’ second-round pick a year ago, impressed as a rookie and should continue at the starting center.

The two guard spots are up for grabs this summer and there will be plenty of competition with Jon Runyan, Royce Newman, Rhyan, and Tom all strong candidates to start.

The Packers’ offensive line deserves to be in the top five.

I hope so, but this projection poses a question...don't you have to know who your starting 5 are before you can make a ranking like this?

I don't want to be difficult, but we don't know 40% of the equation at this point...and that is assuming we know Runyan will be one of the starters, otherwise, we don't know 60%.

Go Packers!!!!

Btw...

On the offensive line, the first team group from left to right was Yosh Nijman, Jon Runyan, Josh Myers, Royce Newman and Cole Van Lanen. The second team group was Nijman, Runyan, Myers, Jake Hanson and Newman.

In other news...

QB Jordan Love received first team reps in OTA’s with Aaron Rodgers’ absence. Love said he has “more confidence and greater comfort” in the Packers system. Additionally, rookie WR’s Christian Watson and Romeo Doubs were running with the first team.

Players like Aaron Jones, AJ Dillon and De’Vondre Campbell were seen on special teams units. Getting reps at punt return were Amari Rodgers, Randall Cobb and Romeo Doubs.

Tyler Davis better produce. Just sayin.

*Head Coach Matt LaFleur spoke about his excitement for TE Tyler Davis, the former college Quarterback. He has been impressive this off-season.

*Darnell Savage, who the Packers picked up his 5th year rookie option on, made a few splash plays during OTA’s.

Saying the 0-line will be top 5 at this point is just a guess. Like was already said, we don't even know who will be starting right now. Will Bactiari (spelling) even be back to pre injury form?
Will the new guys be good?
No one knows right now.

packerfanoutwest (10h) : Jaire Alexander says he has a torn PCL

Zero2Cool (20-Nov) : Even with the context it's ... what?

Mucky Tundra (20-Nov) : Matt LaFleur without context: “I don’t wanna pat you on the butt and you poop in my hand.”

beast (20-Nov) : We brought in a former Packers OL coach to help evaluate OL as a scout

beast (20-Nov) : Jets have been pretty good at picking DL

Zero2Cool (20-Nov) : He landed good players thanks to high draft slot. He isn't good.

Zero2Cool (20-Nov) : He can shove his knowledge up his ass. He knows nothing.

beast (20-Nov) : More knowledge, just like bring in the Jets head coach

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : What? Why? Huh?

beast (19-Nov) : I wonder if the Packers might to try to bring Douglas in through Milt Hendrickson/Ravens connections

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : The Jets fired Joe Douglas, per sources

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : Jets are a mess......

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Pretty sure Jets fired their scouting staff and just pluck former Packers.

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Jets sign Anders Carlson to their 53.

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : When you cycle the weeks, the total over remains for season. But you get your W/L for that selected week. Confusing.

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : the total and percentage are the same as the previous weeks

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : the totals are accurate..nrvrtmind

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : I don't follow what you are saying. The totals are not the same as last week.

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : ok so then wht are the totals the same as last week?

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : NFL Pick'em is auto updated when NFL Scores tab is clicked

Martha Careful (19-Nov) : The offense was OK. Let's not forget the Bear defense is very very good.

packerfanoutwest (19-Nov) : Who updates the leaderboard on NFLPickem?

beast (19-Nov) : Has the Packers offense been worse since the former Jets coach joined the Packers?

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Offense gets his ass in gear, this could be good.

Zero2Cool (19-Nov) : Backup QB helped with three wins. Special Teams contributed to three wins.

bboystyle (18-Nov) : Lions played outside thats why. They scored 16 and 17 in the only 2 outside games this year

Zero2Cool (18-Nov) : The rest of the NFL is catching up to Packers ... kicking is an issue throughout league

packerfanoutwest (18-Nov) : Packers DL Kenny Clark: We knew 'we were going to block' Bears' game-winning field goal attempt

Zero2Cool (18-Nov) : Lions seem to be throttling everyone, but only (only) got 24 lol maybe the rain is why

Zero2Cool (18-Nov) : Packers vs Lions game doesn't seem so bad.

beast (18-Nov) : Dennis Green "They are what we thought they were, and we let them off the hook!"

Martha Careful (17-Nov) : comment of the day Z2Cool "Bears better than we want to admit. Packers worse than we think. It's facts."

Mucky Tundra (17-Nov) : my worst case scenario: Bears fix their oline and get a coach like Johnson from the Lions and his scheme

Zero2Cool (17-Nov) : Bears get OL fixed amd we might have a problem

buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : Pretty sure they already have scouting reports on guys who aren't even starting for their college team. The future is now for me.

buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : I tend to let Gute and Co. Worry about the future.

beast (17-Nov) : That's great news and Packers need to keep upgrading their OL, DL and DBs this off-season, so missing one guy doesn't kill them

buckeyepackfan (17-Nov) : Jaire and Evans Williams are both ACTIVE! Good news.

Martha Careful (17-Nov) : The badgers really need to change the whole offensive scheme. No draws no screens plus the quarterback is marginal

Cheesey (17-Nov) : If the Badgers had a decent QB, they would have won. The guy can't hit a wide open receiver

Martha Careful (17-Nov) : chop block

Martha Careful (17-Nov) : there was a very questionable job Block call that upon viewing replay was very borderline

beast (17-Nov) : How so? (I didn't watch)

Zero2Cool (17-Nov) : Badgers got hosed vs Oregon

packerfanoutwest (16-Nov) : damn,he hasn't played since week 2

Mucky Tundra (15-Nov) : poor guy can't catch a break

wpr (15-Nov) : wow. That three different things for the kid.

Zero2Cool (15-Nov) : MarShawn Lloyd has appendicitis according to Matt LaFleur.
