The Green Bay Packers have their 2021 sights set on righting the wrongs of the last two NFC Championship games and advancing to the Super Bowl. In order to do so, they’ll need major contributions from a number of guys across the board.

Health permitting, you can carve in stone monster seasons from a number of staples on the Packers’ roster. These guys include Aaron Rodgers, Aaron Jones, Davante Adams, Kenny Clark, Za’Darius Smith and Jaire Alexander (among others). However, they’ll need some of the more obscure players to rise to stardom. There are a number of guys knocking on that door and here are three who will burst through it and earn their first Pro Bowl appearance.

The Green Bay Packers have an abundance of talent, including these three players who should be selected to their first Pro Bowl in 2021.

Honorable Mention: Marquez Valdes-Scantling

I had to add Marquez Valdes-Scantling in here. Maybe I’m too high on him, but I foresee a MONSTER year coming from the fourth-year wideout.

After struggling to catch the ball for a lot of 2020, he still finished the year with 33 receptions for 690 yards and six touchdowns. Now add in an extra game, improved hands, and improved trust with Aaron Rodgers and Valdes-Scantling will have more opportunities. Throw in the fact that defenses are going to be even more committed to stopping Davante Adams and the stars are aligning for this soon-to-be free agent.
