"We’re told there’s cause for concern in Green Bay, where the offensive line remains a work in progress. Offensive coordinator Jeff Jagodzinski continues to put in extra time with the group during offseason team activity practices. The adopted scheme, a “zoneÃ¢à ‚¬Â system very similar to the one used by the Broncos and Falcons, has the skill-position players excited (the passing game appears to be more vertical than Mike Sherman’s offense was), but the newest members of the line are finding the learning curve to be steep. The play of the interior line is vital to the success of the running game. But that’s the potential problem area  again  for the Packers. After OG Kevin Barry, who was reportedly out of shape, suffered a leg injury, the Packers used second-year OG Junius Coston as the starter on the right side in recent practices. Coston, from North Carolina A&T, played fewer than 10 snaps last season and made mistakes on at least two of them. Rookie Daryn Colledge, a tackle at Boise State, is running with the first team at left guard, and rookie third-round pick Jason Spitz is now the top backup at both OG spots."
Nothing too alarming considering this is early June but this quote caught my eye "the passing game appears to be more vertical than Mike Sherman’s offense was".
Do they know what they're talking about? Our passing game will rely on much shorter throws than under Sherman, not longer.
