Draft Talk: Ranking the linebackers in the 2024 NFL Draft

With just Quay Walker and Isaiah McDuffie returning from the 53-man roster, assuming that De’Vondre Campbell becomes a cap casualty, the Green Bay Packers probably need four more players at the position — with at least one being a starter — this offseason. For reference, the San Francisco 49ers, New York Jets and Houston Texans, three teams from the same defensive coaching tree that new Packers defensive coordinator Jeff Hafley comes from, all carried at least six off-ball linebackers during the 2023 season.
