Josh Sitton

Sitton has been a mainstay on the Packers offensive line for years.

Like Lang, they are considered one of the best guard duos in the NFL. They do a tremendous job in pass blocking for Rodgers – very low sack stats – and are the best run blockers on the team.

Sitton has been hobbled by ankle and knee injuries over the past several years, often leaving the guard position over exposed.

He doesn’t miss much playing time, which bodes well for Aaron Rodgers but he does play hampered, which leaves him further exposed to injury and playing below his typical level.

Sitton will be due for a contract extension soon – and the Packers will need to decide if he’s still worth the investment or if they can find a nice complement to the line in the draft.
