Packers’ rookies who could start in Week 1: Devonte Wyatt, DL

Green Bay expects big things from Devonte Wyatt his season. Playing alongside Kenny Clark, he should have many one-on-one opportunities with opposing offensive linemen and every opportunity to wreak havoc if he can win those matchups.

You can pencil Wyatt in as a starter right now, considering the lack of depth the Packers have at the position. Dean Lowry and Jarran Reed are the other two options, but Wyatt has more natural ability than either of them. Wyatt also has the potential to be a three-down lineman, something the other two lack.
