35. AJ Dillon

After a breakout contest in Week 16 against the Titans, A.J. Dillon didn’t see the playing time boost most fans expected. However, the Packers did use a Dillon and Aaron Jones combination in the backfield late in the game and that’s something worth watching moving forward.

34. Tavon Austin

For worse, Tavon Austin made his presence felt on the Packers’ season finale when he fumbled a punt return in the first half that gave the Bears great field position. He’s struggled with fumbles throughout his career, and hasn’t been explosive with Green Bay. He’ll get some opportunities to make plays happen–hopefully, they go in the Packers’ favor.

33. Kamal Martin

Kamal Martin is brimming with potential and could play a major role as soon as next year. He’s been part of a three-man rotation at inside linebacker with Krys Barnes and Christian Kirksey, but Martin is the most likely to slip out of that rotation. He’s fast and athletic, but plays too out of control at times.

32. Equanimous St. Brown

With Davante Adams demanding all the attention at wide receiver, other Packers in the passing game will have an opportunity to step up and take advantage of the negligence. We’ve seen St. Brown have his moments (against the Titans) and he could be in line for another advantageous position in the playoffs.

31. JK Scott

At times, J.K. Scott can be one of the better punters in the NFL. Unfortunately, there are also times where he struggles big time–and it appears to happen in poor weather. Scott must weather the storm at Lambeau Field and learn how to punt in non-ideal conditions. Field position can be a difference-maker in a game featuring two great teams.
