The offseason focus in Green Bay sits squarely on the transition from Aaron Rodgers to Jordan Love and how that baton handoff makes the Packers a rebuilding club, but the defense still has a ton of talent to make an impact in the win column, as well.

Preston has been great for us. Last season we had some injuries to the defense. Stokes, Campbell, Gary all missed time. The biggest problem over the last few years has always been run defense and soft cover schemes. Hoping Wyatt, Slayton and Ford step up and the new rookies(Wooden and Brooks) as well.
It's a bend but don't break defense that's very frequently prone to breaking. Miserable interior line and linebacker play have caused tons of issues. Corners have been great, we can get to the passer. But if we don't get to the passer or its a run, lookout.
