Five moves that will make the Green Bay Packers Super Bowl contenders

Sign Quinton Spain

Last season there was a clear hole at right guard for the Green Bay Packers and it was a huge contributor to the struggles we saw on the offensive side of the ball. On average the offensive line gave up 3.3 sacks per game and much of the time, the pressure was from up the middle.

At just 27-years-old, Spain still has plenty of good years ahead of him and the way he plays to the whistle along with his physical style is the exact mentality you want in an offensive lineman.

Last season, he was a key part of the Tennessee Titans rushing attack that averaged 126.4 yards per game on the ground. Additionally, Spain would give the Packers a major upgrade in pass protection as he allowed just one sack and one quarterback hit during 15 games last season according to Pro Football Focus.

As a restricted free agent, any offer he receives can be matched by Tennessee, however, they have paid their other guard Josh Kline $26 million and do have other players on the roster that could step in if Spain were gone. After making $1.9 million in 2018, the Green Bay Packers could offer Spain $3 to $4 million per year, which would still be a relatively cheap option but may be out of Tennessee’s price range given who they have on their roster.

While it was for just one season, Spain has played in LaFleur’s offense and that experience could be quite helpful to have on the practice field and in the film room.
