Just think: a year ago we were all wondering when Aaron Rodgers was going to get traded.
It’s true: this time in 2023, Rodgers hadn’t yet announced his intention to play for the New York Jets. And even if Rodgers’ impact on Gang Green was short-lived, the drama over if and when he would be moved certainly wasn’t, defining the whole of the Packers’ offseason.
But this year there is no comparable storyline, and thank God for that. All Brian Gutekunst has on his plate this year is figuring out how to keep his promising young roster growing ahead of schedule through this year’s pivotal draft class and careful free agent spending.
