The Green Bay Packers made 13 picks in the 2023 NFL Draft. Of course, there are some players that fans are already higher on than others. Obviously, Lukas Van Ness will have all eyes on him as he is the team’s first round pick. Then there are the Packers’ offensive skill players that they took in rounds two through four. These include Jayden Reed, Luke Musgrave, and Tucker Kraft. All of these players are highly touted and are believed to have an immediate impact on the team. However, it is actually Karl Brooks, one of their sixth round picks, who…

The Milwaukee Bucks loss to the Miami Heat in just five games in the opening round of the NBA Playoffs was just the start of a disappointing offseason for the team. After their improbable elimination, head coach Mike Budenholzer was fired. Giannis Antetokounmpo, one of three finalists for the NBA MVP Award, finished third in the voting behind Joel Embiid and Nikola Jokic. Bobby Portis did not win the NBA Sixth Man of the Year Award, losing to former Bucks guard and Rookie of the Year Malcolm Brogdon. Brook Lopez was snubbed for the Defensive Player of the Year Award…

The Green Bay Packers are undergoing a major facelift in the locker room. Whereas previous teams have had multiple seasoned veterans on the roster, this year’s team is compiled of many young players with limited experience. According to Albert Breer of Sports Illustrated, the front office made the decision to go young before the 2022 season even ended. Not only did this mean that the team was exploring moving on from Aaron Rodgers, it also meant that meant that other veterans would not be returning.

While the Green Bay Packers are seeing a pretty steep player turnover due to their youth movement, for better or worse the coaching staff is remaining mostly in tact. This is a stark contrast to last offseason that saw offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett leave to be the head coach of the Denver Broncos and quarterbacks coach Luke Getsy head down to be the offensive coordinator for the Chicago Bears. To replace Getsy, Matt LaFleur was able to use the prospect of coaching Aaron Rodgers to lure former quarterbacks coach Tom Clements out of retirement. Despite Rodgers being traded to the…

The Green Bay Packers have never really been major players in free agency. While they, like every team, fill their roster with free agents every year, they rarely pursue major names/impact players. Sure, undrafted free agents like Willie Wood and Tramon Williams have gone on to be franchise greats. Adding a big name on the market, though, is rare in Green Bay. In a recent interview on the “Rise and Schein” podcast, future NFL Hall of Famer and three-time Defensive Player of the Year JJ Watt revealed that he was interested in signing with the Packers. JJ Watt Had Interest…

Green Bay Packers fans love a good blue collar, no-nonsense player. Even though Kurt Warner’s stint in Green Bay was incredibly short, fans still talk about how the team gave a chance to a future Hall of Famer who was stocking grocery shelves at the time. That is why fans will love seventh round wide receiver Grant DuBose, who detailed his journey to the NFL at the team’s rookie mini camp this past weekend. Green Bay Packers Wide Receiver Grant DuBose Worked Four Jobs Waiting for a Chance The esteemed Packers beat writer Bill Huber interviewed DuBose during the team’s rookie…

The Green Bay Packers currently have a plethora of young wide receivers on their 90-man roster. These include the three pass catchers they drafted last year: Christian Watson, Romeo Doubs, and Samori Toure. In addition, Bo Melton and Jeff Cotton were on Green Bay’s roster prior to the 2023 NFL Draft. In said draft, the Packers selected Jayden Reed (second round), Dontayvion Wicks (fifth round) and Grant DuBose (seventh round). Finally, Green Bay also signed receivers Malik Heath and Deuce Watts as undrafted free agents. What they do not have is a seasoned veteran at the position who can help…

The Green Bay Packers addressed their need at edge rusher early in the 2023 NFL Draft. They used the 13th overall pick, which they received in a pick swap that was part of the Aaron Rodgers trade, to take edge rusher Lukas Van Ness out of Iowa. However, the lack of depth at the edge rusher position was not going to be solved with the drafting of just one player. With Rashan Gary possibly missing the first part of the season as he recovers from a torn ACL, Green Bay was facing the possibility of only having Preston Smith, Kingsley…

A recent article written by Albert Breer of Sports Illustrated that revealed multiple secrets regarding the Aaron Rodgers trade between the Green Bay Packers and New York Jets has the NFL world buzzing. Among the secrets revealed in the article was the timing at which the Packers decided to move on from older players, who may or may not have been responsible for missed meetings, and what Rodgers did to make trade talks difficult. On Tuesday’s “Nine 2 Noon” show on 97.3 The Game, Packers Hall of Famer John Kuhn and Wisconsin Badgers basketball legend Brian Butch both had some strong takes…

The Milwaukee Bucks did not make the long playoff run that everyone expected them to make. After finishing the regular season with the best record in the NBA, they lost 4-1 to the Miami Heat in the first round. Star Giannis Antetokounmpo missed three games with a back injury, but the team held the lead late in multiple games. Their inability to adjust and failure to make a deep run for the second year in a row cost head coach Mike Budenholzer his job. Now, a great deal of speculation is floating around social media regarding who the next coach…
