We have now hit on every position for the Green Bay Packers other than the front seven. I wanted to write up these players all together, because of A) the small sample size we have of Ted Thompson drafting since Dom Capers' defensive scheme impacted his pool of talent and B) because some of these players are a bit ambiguous.
We're going to go through these players in these steps:
1. defensive linemen (ends and tackles)
2. edge defenders (outside linebackers)
3. linebackers (inside linebackers)
First are the defensive linemen. These are the players who fit that mold under the Thompson/Capers duo, the longest general manager/defensive coordinator pairing in the NFL:
• 2009 first-round pick B.
