The Packers are the only team in the NFL with a quarterback, receiver and running back in the top six in all three categories.

It's slow, and article talks about how good Rodgers, Adams and Jones are. Also Tonyan but he's most average starter.

Sternberger could break out too. Lot of talent there.

Do they count AJ Dillon? Hasn't generated stats yet.

I felt like Dugara and Daffney looked better, at least as H-backs. Sternberger might have more potential as a receiving TE, but currently Tonyan is blocking him from getting more snaps in that role.

Dillon has only looked good for one game and Rodgers seemed kinda like they haven't seen that in practice. So I'm unsure what to think of Dillon yet, he's got some good power, but I think they clearly trusted him less than the vets, otherwise he would of been getting more chances in the power spots.

Sternberger needs another training camp. Not unusual for a TE to take an extra year or two.

Looking beyond the skilled positions, Bak was the best OT.

At 67.7 Jenkins may not have had a great PFF grade. Factor in it was his second season, played multiple positions and didn't have a real training camp, he was very solid. I can see him taking another step this year.

Don't count on rookies to excel. If there is one, it might be Josh Myers at center. He's got big shoes to fill. Linsley was the best center last year so don't expect him to be THAT good in year 1.

The problem is, when you start 3 wide outs and two of whoever you put in there are well below average, the coverage can focus on Adams.

With a run first, heavy TE focus 1-2-2, play action and quick release passing mitigates the need for elite depth at wide out.

And I believe MVS led the NFL in yards per catch...

So I'm not sure the WRs are so well low below average... especially when Lazard is basically already an extra blocker which you want on the field and you need a deep threat and that's clearly not Adams or Lazard.
