3. Adrian Amos

2. Darnell Savage

Both of these guys were peaking at the end of the 2020 season and there’s plenty of reasons to believe that’s just the start of this duo’s rise.

Adrian Amos and Darnell Savage are perfect fits next to one another and their strengths build off one another. Savage can roam the field, playing a more traditional safety while also sliding in as a slot cornerback from time to time as well. Meanwhile, Amos can play around the line of scrimmage or deeper in coverage as well.

Joe Barry is sure to give them more freedom this year which should only help their cause. They’ll need the Packers’ defense to at least be a top 10 unit for them to get the recognition they deserve. With Jaire Alexander, Za’Darius Smith and Kenny Clark projecting to get a lot of Pro Bowl attention, it will be hard for voters to justify adding two more guys to that list unless the unit is very good to great.
