2. Running back

They have one of the best one-two punches at running back in Aaron Jones and AJ Dillon. Jones could be entering the final year of his Packers’ career and still has a lot left to give. He’s extremely dynamic and a homerun threat whenever he touches the rock. Dillon will look to bounce back from a down 2022 campaign.

On the roster: Aaron Jones, AJ Dillon, Patrick Taylor Jr., Lew Nichols, Tyler Goodson

Next. Packers' most improved, least improved positions after the draft. dark

1. Outside linebacker

The top spot goes to their outside linebackers. It begins with Rashan Gary, an All-Pro candidate. He’s still recovering from an ACL tear last year, but Green Bay has enough talent to hold them over. Preston Smith is the solid veteran of the group, and first-round pick Lukas Van Ness is ripe with potential. Kingsley Enagbare also showed enough promise during his rookie year to round out a solid four-man rotation.

On the roster: Rashan Gary, Preston Smith, Lukas Van Ness, Kingsley Enagbare, Justin Hollins, LaDarius Hamilton, Jonathan Garvin, Brenton Cox Jr., Keshawn Banks,
