Packers 53-man roster predictions following 2020 NFL Draft
Safeties (4)
Adrian Amos, Darnell Savage, Raven Greene, Vernon Scott
The Packers successfully fixed the safety position, which was one of their biggest offseason needs a year ago.
Free-agent addition Adrian Amos played in all 16 games, making 84 tackles, eight pass defenses, and two interceptions. First-round pick Darnell Savage made 14 starts, making 55 tackles, five pass defenses, and two interceptions. Savage was named to the PFWA All-Rookie Team.
Both players made key plays throughout the season. Amos made one of the most memorable plays of the season, intercepting former teammate Mitch Trubisky to effectively clinch a road victory over the Chicago Bears in the season opener. That’s not a moment any of us will be forgetting anytime soon. Savage also came up with a couple of takeaways in a strong rookie season.
Raven Greene will likely be the Packers’ backup safety entering the 2020 season. He only played in two games last year due to injury.
A question over training camp will be who replaces Ibraheim Campbell, who has signed with the Tennessee Titans. Will Redmond and rookie Vernon Scott are the top two candidates for a roster spot, but I’m gone with Scott, a seventh-round pick in last month’s draft.
Overall, the Packers are well set at safety with a strong starting duo of Amos and Savage.
