1. Lane Taylor

It’s been a roller coaster of a year for Packers’ guard Lane Taylor. A year ago at this time he was preparing to be the starting left tackle–a job that only lasted two weeks after rookie second round pick Elgton Jenkins took over and never looked back.

Fast forward to this year, and Taylor is once again hoping to be a starting guard–this time on the right side of the line. The Packers have an open competition with Taylor competing with Billy Turner for the starting right guard spot and Turner competing with Rick Wagner for the starting right tackle job.

Taylor has been the clear winner so far, dominating individual drills and holding up in team competition as well. Following an offseason full of whispers regarding Taylor’s spot on the team and ultimately taking a pay cut, It’s a satisfying start to what he hopes will be a tremendous year.
