Packers: Ranking top offseason needs ahead of free agency 2020
14. Kicker
After Mason Crosby inked a new three-year deal last month, the Packers have no concerns at kicker. Crosby booted a career-best 91.7 percent of his field goal attempts in 2019, giving Green Bay one of the most reliable kickers in the league.
13. Punter
While looking for an upgrade at punter can’t be ruled out this offseason, the Packers would be fine to roll with JK Scott again in 2020. Scott’s punting average was only good for 29th in the league this past season, but he did land 29 inside the 20-yard line, tied for ninth-best in the NFL, while also forcing 25 fair catches, fifth-best. Scott needs to work on his consistency, but this isn’t a position of need.
12. Guard
The Packers have their two starting positions at guard set. Elgton Jenkins‘ first season earned him PFWA All-Rookie Team honors, while Billy Turner started all 16 games at right guard. It’s never a bad idea to add more depth at any position on the offensive line, but let’s not forget that Lane Taylor is still on the roster. The Packers could move on to free up cap room but while he’s part of the roster, the depth at guard is fine.
11. Quarterback
No problems at quarterback, either, as long as Aaron Rodgers is throwing passes. Once again, the backup job is a question mark and something Brian Gutekunst could consider making changes. Gutekunst wouldn’t rule out drafting a quarterback early, but we’re talking about the No. 2 job here with a rookie being drafted as a potential long-term replacement for Rodgers, not for 2020.
