And Then There Were Three
Free agency officially began on Mar. 16 with 14 members of the Packers hitting the open market.

Over the next several weeks, I will analyze each of the Packers’ unrestricted free agents by revisiting their 2021 seasons, assessing why they should or should not be re-signed, projecting possible contract terms, and making a prediction on whether or not the player will return in 2022.

After rewatching Sunday’s game against the Detroit Lions, here are 10 things worth knowing: OFFENSE 1) Jordan Love reminded me of DeShon Kizer before the 2020 draft and watching him throw 62 passes in four games this season has done little to make me re-think that comparison.
