The Green Bay Packers are right in the running for having the NFL’s most talented starting defense entering the 2022 season. The starting 11 will likely feature at least six first-round draft picks, and there’s a Pro Bowler or All-Pro at every level of the defense. It’s increasingly difficult to find an obvious weak link in the starting group, provided first-round pick Quay Walker is the real deal at linebacker.
However, depth at several spots on defense is a real area of concern, and the Packers need young players to step up and develop into capable backups during training camp later this summer.
