    They should draft BPA of course
    If we assume the success of the offense is almost entirely about Rodgers and not how good the rest of the players might be, that leads to the crazy logic in my post.

    Rodgers is having a good year because of the quality of the players around him, not despite the quality. Having quality in the offensive huddle makes a big difference.

    • Why did we let this guy go in camp?

      Travis Fulgham's last two months:
      * August 9th: waived by the Lions
      * August 10th: claimed by Packers
      * August 19th: waived by the Packers
      * August 20th: claimed by the Eagles
      * October 4th: catches game-winning TD
      * October 11th: 10 catches, 152 yards, 1 TD and counting
      The measure of who we are is what we do with what we have.

        I certainly think an above-average QB makes a huge difference, and can carry the surrounding players. I 100% agree having quality surrounding players makes a difference. Bahk > Marshmellow, Jordy > MVS, etc. They do need to draft some more talent to help Rodgers.

        I also think they need some help on D, but there are some who think TT/Gute have spent a lot of high round draft capital on defense and it hasn't paid the expected dividends.
        Since 2015 they've spent R1 & R2 picks on Randall, Rollins, Kenny Clark, King, Josh Jones, Jaire, Jackson, Gary, and Savage.
        The only offensive players picked in 1st two rounds during that time were Spriggs, Jenkins, Love, and Dillon.

          One of the problems with the preseason held this year. The Packers never had much of a chance to evaluate him. They only had him for a week, and let him go when they needed roster spots for players coming off the "covid-hold" list.

              I agree with the general sentiment that a QB can have the most impact of any other position, but success or failure is too often attributed solely to the QB. The difference between Rodgers with a great supporting cast and Rodgers on a crap team is meaningful. I'd say Rodgers on a team with mediocre support would be a worse offense than a fair number of QBs who instead had a really good supporting cast. Put them all on equal footing and I think Rodgers might be the best, with only a couple in consideration.

              • If you believe this, Chase Claypool might have been on their wish list in R2.
                Brian Gutekunst made no secret of the team’s desire to add receiver talent this offseason, yet even with a quiet draft, the Packers offense is cruising. They were right to believe their own players would be good enough, but that’s not quite a defense of the draft ... yet.


                I agree the MLF offense doesn't require stud WRs nearly as much as MM's, but I think they need to look at continually improving the receiving talent and hope they draft a WR.

                • ESB back in the mix. Hopefully, he's fully healthy. I'm excited to see what he can bring. He's a good fit for LaFleur's offense -- even though he was drafted before the coaching hire.

                  • Yeah, I liked the ESB pick at the time and am hopeful he can recover from his injuries and be productive. The clock is ticking though - he's been hurt more than he's played at this point, and I worry his development will be affected.
                    I think he could be better than MVS; a faster Lazard even. Several things have to go his way for that to happen.

                          • Has St. Brown been practicing this week? Or is this just speculation? I too hope he is back and healthy.

                              He practiced yesterday. Today is day off.
