‘No more of that’ Packers’ Edgerrin Cooper puts NFL on notice
Expectations are high for Edgerrin Cooper, in the Packers linebacker’s third NFL season. After Green Bay acquired veteran linebacker and tackle magnet Zaire Franklin, new defensive coordinator Jonathan Gannon hopes to turn Cooper loose as a freelancing chaos agent in the middle of the Packers’ defense.

Did trying to get bigger on the offensive line actually work for the Packers?
The Packers have made a conscious effort over the past couple of years to get bigger on their offensive line. It seemed obvious at a glance: they signed the generously proportioned Aaron Banks last spring, then spent a second round pick in the 2025 NFL Draft on Anthony Belton, who didn’t get the nickname “Escalade” […]

For Green Bay Packers rookie cornerback Marlon Jones Jr., reaching the NFL required overcoming far more than the usual football challenges.

The 2026 Packers Will Thrive On the Deep Ball
The saying goes that speed kills, and for the Green Bay Packers’ group of wide receivers, it’s hard to find a time when that has ever been more true. Matt LaFleur typically prefers wide receivers with bigger frames to help with run blocking, among other things.

Packers Are Primed for a Bounce-Back Season in 2026
After an injury-riddled season paired with inconsistency, the Green Bay Packers did not live up to the expectations many had for them last year. The Packers finished with a 9-7-1 record and entered the playoffs on a four-game losing streak. That was far from an ideal way to close the regular season. Although the team’s […] The post Packers Are Primed for a Bounce-Back Season in 2026 appeared first on The Lead .
Will the Packers Go Heavy At Linebacker This Year?
Every summer, it seems one of the biggest topics of discussion is how many players the Green Bay Packers will carry at a certain position. Will the Packers carry seven wide receivers?

The long-term effects of the Packers’ pre-draft visit strategy

Will Green Bay’s Target-Share Approach Change This Season?
The Green Bay Packers’ wide receiver group looks different than it has in the past handful of seasons. Brian Gutekunst drafted six wide receivers between 2022 and 2023 and added two more with premium draft capital in 2025. Coupled with heavy investments at tight end, the passing game had lots of hungry dawgs to feed.
What does a role for MarShawn Lloyd actually look like?
MarShawn Lloyd has been little more than an idea for his two years in Green Bay. A 2024 third round pick out of USC, Lloyd has seen the field for just one regular season game in the intervening two years. He’s been injured so much we can’t even given him the Christian Watson caveat. We […]

Green Bay’s Murky Future At Wide Receiver Is Finally Clear
The Green Bay Packers had a busy offseason in their Wide Receiver Dept, despite not drafting one at all and adding no significant personnel at the position save for signing Skyy Moore, who is really a kick-return specialist. And it’s looking more and more like their future at wide receiver is set. They’ll have four WRs locked down through at least 2028 — and beyond, in some cases.
