3. Christian Watson

The sky is the limit for Watson. He’s a 6-foot-4 freak who runs a sub 4.40 40-yard dash and has a nearly 40-inch vertical leap. He has to work on his route-running and hands–two areas that held him back in his rookie year. However, it’s already clear he has no trouble getting open and can blow the top off a defense anytime. He’s a true game-changer in the Packers’ offense.

2. Jordan Love

I believe the Packers believe Love is the guy. We saw them go all in with Aaron Rodgers during that transition 15 years ago, and they’re showing the same belief in Love this time. He’s sat patiently behind Rodgers, giving us only glimpses of his talent. He may never be Aaron Rodgers good, but he could become a top quarterback in the NFL.

1. Rashan Gary

Gary is already at star level, proving only an injury can stop him from getting to the quarterback. He continues to improve every year and should take another leap in 2023. The first step is to get healthy and recover from the torn ACL he suffered in 2022.
