A roundup of the latest Green Bay Packers articles for Saturday, March 9.

Good morning and welcome to the Packers News Report. It’s going to be an interesting week for the Green Bay Packers. Will they have made any free agency signings by next weekend? Free agency officially begins on Wednesday, and trades are already beginning to be made around the NFL ahead of the new league year.

General manager Brian Gutekunst has just a few more days to re-sign the Packers’ own free agents before they will be able to sign with other teams. Perhaps the biggest concern is that they lose Bashaud Breeland, which would leave them thin at the cornerback position.

In the Packers News Report today: taking stock at the safety position before free agency gets underway, a look at safeties who improved their draft stock at the scouting combine, and more.

Here’s a roundup of the latest articles from around the internet.
