What to Expect from Rashan Gary in Year One
When the Green Bay Packers selected Rashan Gary with the 12th pick in the 2019 NFL draft, they were swinging for the fences.
Gary, who was the No. 1 recruit coming out of high school in 2016, has as much potential as just about anyone in the draft. He's 6-foot-4, 280 pounds and runs the 40-yard dash in 4.56.
When he put on the No. 52 (sorry Clay) he instantly reminded me of Julius Peppers and it's likely there were others in the Packers organization that thought of Peppers when evaluating Gary.
Of course, there is a dramatic difference between Peppers and Gary coming out of college. Gary had 10 sacks at Michigan, while Peppers had 15 in his sophomore season at North Carolina.
