If Rodgers does come back, can stay healthy and the Packers hit on a few early draft picks and maybe 1-2 nice Free Agent pickups, they could compete in 2023. As several of us, including you have pointed out, the weapons that some of these playoff teams have on offense is night and day to what the Packers have.  So in my opinion, they need a TE like Mayer in the draft to have a big rookie year, as well as Watson and 2 other WR's to play consistently like starters. Throw that all in with a defense that finally plays up to its potential and maybe you have a team playing for a Lombardi.A lot of "if this happens" to do that, as well as probably shoving a lot of cap out into the future.  Reloading and "going all in" is a process that eventually will put the Packers in Cap Hell Bankruptcy.</blockquote>
