That is what has many Packer fans nervous and rightfully so.  There weren't a lot of positives coming out of our young CB's last year and that is from most of them seeing quite a few snaps.  The linebacker play isn't as dominating as it needs to be and the DL is average at best.Nothing that happens in the draft is going to relieve this uneasiness for me.  Bottom line (right now) is that last year's group on defense (with players lost/gained) have to improve quite a bit to make the Packers contenders for that Super Bowl that most of us are striving for.</blockquote>
