Analysis

The Rodgers deal got done and it cost so much that they had to ship their best WR Davante Adams out of town. Mercurial talent WR Sammy Watkins is not going to do it. Rodgers has shown he can make lemonade out of lemon receivers, but is it a recipe to get all the way to the Super Bowl? The Packers will have to scheme a robust running attack to free up the passing lanes. The team will need to lean on a talented defense to pick up the slack. Odds are Green Bay cleans up in a weak division and chokes in the playoffs.

Prediction: 1st in division. Davante Adams or no, the Packers still have the goods to beat their opponents in a mediocre division. Green Bay will be exposed in the playoffs.
