[QUOTE="Lex Luger, post: 486017, member: 8654"] Biggest need: Defensive linemen Second biggest need: Offensive line, Order by need by exact position: 1. DE -Pickett is getting to the only can play a few snaps a game point 2. LT -Newhouse is a backup. LT is too important to not have a dominant player starting. 3. DT -Raji needs at least 1/3 of the snaps in the game off to be effective when he's in there, he's tired by end of games. 4. C -EVD is same as Newhouse, not dominant enough to be starter but makes good backup. 5. RT -I hope Bulaga was hurt before he really got hurt because when he was in there, he looked soft and weak. Barclay is backup material. If you dont want a soft team, it starts with lines and Packers are a soft, smoke and mirrors team. Hopefully AJ Hawk who hasnt forced a fumble in 5 full seasons in a row and didnt defend against a single pass this season will be gone too. Bishop and Brad Jones make decent MLB pair. Walden makes a good backup. I'd like to see the Packers go out and sign a big name free agent OLB to start opposite Matthews, but we all know that won't happen.

Maybe one of the Packers many backup linebackers can step it up and be a decent passrusher. CB and safetys looks good. Williams, Hayward, Shields look strong. All 3 are very talented.
