Bold prediction for Packers’ positional groups: Defensive line

The defensive line is one of the revamped positions on this Packers roster, turning it from a weakness in past years to a strength.

Kenny Clark will no longer be the sole producer, as Jarran Reed and first-round pick Devonte Wyatt join a unit that also includes Dean Lowry and TJ Slaton. That rotation is a strong one and will mean the coaching staff will have to decide how many guys up front they’ll want to hang onto. I think they’ll only go with five which means Jack Heflin, who made the roster least year, will be let go. That’s the consequence of a deeper unit with holes elsewhere.

Bold Prediction: Packers cut Jack Heflin
