Packers: Positional grades at halfway point of 2021 season

With eight games remaining in the regular season, the Green Bay Packers are more or less at the halfway point of the 2021 NFL season. That means it’s time to check-in and hand out positional grades based on how each unit has produced compared to preseason expectations.

We’ll take a position by position look at the Packers and hand out grades for how each one has fared so far this season. The grades will be determined based on three factors: the preseason expectations for each unit, the natural talent the players have, and the PFF grade they’ve earned so far this year. So, without further ado, let’s dive in!

With about half of the 2021 NFL season complete, let’s hand out grades based on how each position has fared for the Green Bay Packers.

Packers’ grades at halfway point: Special teamers: D

Poor Mason Crosby. He’s the poster boy for the Packers’ broken field goal unit, as they’ve had issues touch all parts of their operation including the snapper, holder, and blocking upfront. It’s all culminated in a number of missed and blocked field goals by this unit. To make matters worse, Green Bay just changed long-snappers as well.

Corey Bojorquez’s punting is the only thing saving this from being an F. He’s been everything the Packers could’ve asked for and more–earning the second-highest grade according to PFF. Let’s hope that continues as the weather turns for the worse in Wisconsin.
