The Packers’ edge rushers characterize in all probability probably the most storyline-rich place group on protection.

There’s a bit little bit of every little thing in that room. Veteran Preston Smith must stabilize the group as Rashan Gary works his means again from an ACL tear. Newcomer Lukas Van Ness injects some intriguing athleticism. Justin Hollins and Kingsley Enagbare each look to construct on promising 2022 campaigns, whereas undrafted rookie Brenton Cox tries to unseat roster standby Jonathan Garvin on the backside of the depth chart.

Whether or not the group seems to be any good is, clearly, vital. However even when this group isn’t good, they’ll be attention-grabbing, and in a 12 months the place the Packers are retooling (or rebuilding or reworking, no matter re-based phrase you like), that’s nearly simply nearly as good.

Right here’s the primary query: what number of edge rushers will the Packers preserve?

Christian Watson’s end final 12 months was positively higher than his begin. Right here’s how he plans to construct on that.

Watson may get some assist in the passing assault by way of Romeo Doubs. He’s been a gradual presence by way of the Packers’ offseason exercises.

The Packers don’t land anyone on this record, however they’ve obtained some robust contenders for subsequent 12 months.

I’m wondering how common this phenomenon is. Do different animals do one thing related?
