The Green Bay Packers led by Aaron Rodgers are preparing for this up and coming season once more, as one of the top choices to win the NFC.
The Packers have been anticipated favorites to win every season since their 2011 Super Bowl triumph. Yet, the 2017 season is here, and General Manger Ted Thompson is still trying to groom his team to be a serious contender for this year's super bowl. He had an excellent draft and is vigorously searching for free agents during this free agency period.
In any case, despite this, there are still many questions that remain in the Packers Super Bowl dispute this season.
Each team is imperfect - even ones that are Super Bowl contenders. Whether it is a veteran venturing into another part of the league, or a new kid on the block taking the field for the first time, there are still gaps that need to be filled. For the Packers, they should discover players that will fill the required roles necessary. With this said how about we look at what problems the Packers will face as they prepare for the current year's Training Camp?
Will Ty Montgomery fulfill the Packers' Running Back needs?
Although Ty Montgomery has already been named as the starting Running Back, will he turn out to be the Running Back that the Packers require? During the offseason, the Packers added a number of Running Backs to their roster.
For example, Aaron Jones, Devante Mays, and Jamaal Williams. Will any of these players end up taking his spot?
Is the Offensive Line adequate?
Two noteworthy bits of the Packers Offensive Line have moved on from the team in the previous two offseasons. TJ Lang this offseason signed with division rivals Detriot Lions. While last season, Josh Sitton joined another of the Packers' division opponents, the Chicago Bears.
For the Packers to succeed, the Offensive line should keep their genius Quarterback upright and give him the time required in the pocket.
Which Wide Receiver is no. 4 on the depth chart?
The threesome of Jordy Nelson, Randall Cobb, and Davante Adams will be the Packers best three recipients heading into this season. Be that as it may, the question remains what will the rest of the Wide Reciever depth chart be?
Jeff Janis, Geronimo Allison, Trevor Davis and Malachi Dupre are all right now fighting for the number four spot on the depth draft, so far doubtlessly the nod will be Allison, yet it is a photo finish as of now.
Did the Secondary enhance enough?
In the 2016 season after the blackout issues that precluded Sam Shields for whatever remains of the season, the Packers Defensive Backs were reliably outflanked every week. In two rounds of the draft, GM Ted Thompson chose Josh Jones and Kevin King, and in the free agency period, he marked Davon House in the expectations that these secondary issues settle.
Is the pass rush still useful?
Despite the maturing Julius Peppers not being as beneficial as he was in his prime, Peppers included the increase in pass rushing that the Packers distressfully required.
In any case, with Nick Perry leaving with the Packers in the offseason and with Clay Matthews still as dominant as ever, The Packers can have the expectation that their pass rushing will be solid, which at times last season it most certainly was not.
There are predictions that the Packers will continue makings strides towards another Super Bowl triumph. Nonetheless, the Atlanta Falcons and Dallas Cowboys whom both posed dangers to the Packers last season are still a threat to the Packers' chances. Regardless, these Packers are as yet one of the best teams in the NFL. If the Packers can answer these five inquiries amid training camp, there ought to be no reason, come February, that they will not be in the Super Bowl.
