4 members of Packers’ 2019 draft class capable of more impact in 2021

The Green Bay Packers have already enjoyed significant contributions from the top three picks in Brian Gutekunst’s 2019 draft class. Second-round pick Elgton Jenkins is a Pro Bowler and one of the most versatile offensive linemen in football. Darnell Savage has been an effective two-year starter at safety, and Rashan Gary really came into his own as a disruptive player to end 2020.

While the second-year jump is always notable, sometimes players – especially those picked later in the draft – need an extra year to finally find their footing. The third year could be the sweet spot for a few members of the Packers’ 2019 class.
