The Green Bay Packers have some roster flexibility heading into the summer, and it's got fans buzzing about what moves could be next. After releasing veteran kicker Brandon McManus, the team now sits at 89 players on their offseason roster—including international exemption Dante Barnett. That leaves two open spots, and the Packers' decision not to sign any tryout players from rookie minicamp has only added to the intrigue.
So, where should general manager Brian Gutekunst and the front office focus their attention? With training camp on the horizon, these roster openings could be used to address depth or add competition at key positions.
One obvious area to watch is the defensive backfield. The Packers have invested heavily in their secondary in recent years, but an extra cornerback or safety could provide valuable insurance, especially given the physical demands of a long season. Another possibility is the offensive line, where depth is always critical—a versatile lineman who can play both guard and tackle would be a smart pickup.
Don't sleep on the wide receiver room either. While the Packers have young talent like Christian Watson and Romeo Doubs, adding a veteran presence could help stabilize the group and provide a reliable target for quarterback Jordan Love. And of course, there's always the chance they bring in a special teams ace or a pass-rushing specialist to round out the roster.
Whatever direction they choose, these two spots give the Packers a chance to fine-tune their squad before the real action begins. For fans, it's a fun puzzle to solve—what position group would you target to give this team the best shot at a deep playoff run?
