That was the final line for three of the four edge rushers who played for Green Bay a season ago. The individual grades were:
Reggie Gilbert -7.10
Nick Perry -7.65
Clay Matthews -9.30
Thankfully Kyler Fackrell had a pretty significant improvement from 2017 (-5.20) to 2018 (+3.15) or it could have been even worse.
Regardless of Fackrell’s improvement, it was quite obvious that a drastic overhaul was needed at the position. And that’s exactly what Brian Gutekunst did. Gone are Perry and Matthews. Matthews will playout his last NFL seasons in his home state while Nick Perry will get paid to NOT play for Green Bay.
