The Green Bay Packers arguably finished the 2023 NFL season as one the hottest teams in all of football. Jordan Love is now looking like one of the best quarterbacks in the league, the Packers young WR core in Christian Watson, Romeo Doubs, Jayden Reed, & Dontayvion Wicks look phenomenal. And not to mention with what the Packers are already pulling off in 2024 NFL Free Agency, we need to talk.
Now the addition of RB Josh Jacbos to the Green Bay Packers backfield was unexpected, but it might take this Packers offense to a new level. In 2023, Matt LaFleur found a rhythm with Jordan Love as the season went on, whether that was through play-action, unique run schemes, etc, the Packers added a weapon they’ve seemingly never had before, despite Aaron Jones going to the Vikings. We also have yet to mention the threat in the TE room with Luke Musgrave & Tucker Kraft, along with the Packers 2024 NFL Draft plans.
Then, there’s the Packers defense. And when you think about the addition of S Xavier McKinney along with new Packers DC Jeff Hafley coming to GB, this defense could see a level of production unlike years past. Throwing Xavier McKinney in a secondary already including Jaire Alexander, Anthony Johnson Jr & Eric Stokes, along with a frontline of Kenny Clark, Devonte Wyatt, Preston Smith, Quay Walker, Rashan Gary, etc, the Packers are looking to make a strong push in 2024 by the looks of it.

Still can't believe we got McKinney!!!!
MF!! We got Darnold and your dusty left overs in Jones
@@noyb7617ahhh, thanx for taking leftovers as usual…😃😃😃
@@noyb7617 Hey, you also got a bunch of ghosts as a package deal
Ong
Nbs that shit was dream that came true since January
I love Jones and I’m bummed he’s gone, but I’m not mad at the move, Gute is trying to win rings and I said ringS…plural. This young group is going to grow and gel and be a problem for defenses, I just hope he can build a defense
He doesn't have a very big window because it's only a matter of time before all this young talent is going to get paid and they can't afford it. They got like a 2-3 year window to get things done.
@@graham5990thats as big of a window you can get in the NFL
I agree with both of yall
Right!, happens every year…as a fan be happy about newcomers but don’t dwell on boyz leavin…been a packer since the 70’s hard to watch a lotta guys go, nature of the game now…
@@graham5990 doesn’t change anything I said 🤷♂️
Ok. Reality check. While I appreciate what aaron jones and David bahk did for the packers, I don't feel sorry for either. They are multi millionaires because of their time in green bay. Good luck to both. Their lives are golden and gifted. But grabbing Jacob's and Mckinney was a freaking master move by GB.
Exactly! ^ thank you! Too many Wisc sports fans always want to hit the panic button, this was GREAT for us
Jones was a 5th round pick who totally overachieved and people are overlooking that. I hate to say it, but who knows if he’d have gotten a fair chance elsewhere? This might’ve been the best scenario for him career-wise, and it just had to end this way. It’s hard to pay 2 RBs in this league and even harder to do that with a RB turning 30 next season.
Yo, I’m a Packers fan and when I heard that Xavier McKinney was coming on our team, I was like holy crap😮😮
This feels like a madden franchise mode type off season 😂
With the salary cap turned off.
we really aren’t comprehending jaire and mckinney together
Hopefully Jaire heals and stays healthy.
If he stays as well
Jaire played well at the end of the season. He shut down Lamb. Having him and M. together is a bit like having Woodson and Harris together. Now it's up the Green Bay D-Line to really pressure the QB.
Lowkey whoever wins the cb2 battle is gonna be a really good 2nd corner too 👌🏻👌🏻
@@62tbirdroadster And Stokes too.
My thoughts on the Jones contract situation is that his agent is an A-hole who probably blew up the deal.
It sure seems that way
Packers offered 4 mil +2 more in incentives for one year. Minnesota offered a straight 6 +1 mil incentives.
Drew Rosenhouse, enough said🤣
So instead they decided to give Jones 12M to play for Minnesota so they could get 5M in cap space. Along with the 7M from the Vikings, Jones will get 19M instead. His agent did the absolute best job possible.
Yeah Drew Rosenhaus is a turd.
Most excited i've been for an upcoming season in a long time. This team will be a must-see force in the NFL 👀
I'll miss Jonesy, he was one of the best Packers ever on par with Donald Driver as far as personality, community, and being a great human being. The front office did him a bit dirty.
I honestly think this is the first time there was a specific free agent that I wanted that the Packers actually went and got in McKinney. Well since Reggie White of course.
Jacob’s ran behind one of the worst run blocking lines in the league last year on a team that was doomed with turmoil and drama since he got there. McDaniel was horrible! I bet he had a career year in this scheme playing for a well run team with a legit hope to win. Jones is a better back but Jacob’s isn’t far behind in the right scheme with a good line
I agree with this a lot. I think Jones as of this next year is still a better back than Jacobs... But with their ages and health taken into account I think this puts the Packers in a better long term situation. With all the rookies we had and how young the team is I expect us to stay a top contender for a few years without need for major changes.
That's why last year was such a success! Knowing that we found our next quarterback just opens up the door for us to improve the team so much this house season without any worry.
I have to push back on what you said.Jones is not a better back His best season is 1100 yd.Jacobs, best season is 1600. With a dysfunctional organization, if this was baseball, jacobs would be a five tool player, Jones great in his own right, but is an undersized heart of a lion running back I've seen him get bullied in the playoffs and have the ball took from him not being able to finish in the playoffs on long runs I just saw Jacobs take a hand off.At the 10 yd line and go the distance, he's the total package.Go pack
the raiders o line was statistically top 15 but mk
@@erickthefantabulous1 Aaron jones ypc is 4.9 in his career, Jacob’s is only 4.2. That’s a big difference. Jacob’s has more carries than jones in 2 less years. Jones is also a better receiver out of the backfield. He’s also known as one of the best pass blocking backs in the league. He was pancaking the cowboys rushers in the playoffs. Jones has 18 receiving tds to Jacobs zero. Jones is a complete back and statistically better per play. He was grossly under used his first 4 seasons. Aaron jones was ranked number 10 all time in nfl history In yards per carry just a few games ago while still at 5.0 ypc. That’s huge man!the argument for Jacob’s is durability but he has also been hurt quite a bit in his career so he’s not super durable either. The age difference is also mostly negated by the massive increase in workload. Jones has a lot more tread on the tires for his age because he was under used his whole career. Jacob’s was one of the most used backs in his career. They both have missed exactly 10 games in the last 5 years. Exactly the same amount over the last 5 years. Jacobs will likely stay healthier being used less in GB though.
@erickthefantabulous1 and what Jacob's did last year. I know jones is 30 but this a lateral move
The thing that makes this a dangerous team is the way LaFleur mixes up the play calling. He needs to keep calling the plays.
Agreed.
I suspect LaFleur was relieved when Rodgers left bc of Rodgers' influence and interference with LaFleur's game planning and play calling.
Get more aggressive & Passionate about winning is what he needs to do
Whoever you are, guy I never heard of until just now You're spot on We just picked up two elite players at their positions go pack
Here’s what makes what the Packers are doing even better… they’re being slept on. The narrative right now is that “Detroit is about to run the NFC”, and that “it’s their division to lose”… I think Green Bay, despite making the playoffs and TRASHING the Cowboys, is being big time slept on, and people don’t truly realize what Green Bay has put together.
If that team picks up right where they left off offensively, and that defense under Jeff Hafley develops into a solid unit, that Packers team could be, not just a good team… A DOMINANT team. Jordan Love proved he’s a legit QB, that WR/TE core is loaded with so much potential, on top of that very difficult to cover because so many different guys can get open, & Josh Jacobs is a great addition to that offense despite losing Jones! Add more pieces to the O-line through the draft, and it’ll be probably one of the most complete offenses in the NFL this upcoming season!
I'm sad we gave up Aaron Jones (even more since he went to the Vikings), but these moves have me super excited for next season
Gonna miss Aaron Jones & the upstanding model he was for the organization, fans and the community.
Honestly really stoked and curious to see how hafley does. We’ve needed a more aggressive defensive and Joe Barry CLEARLY didn’t provide that. Now with mckinney on the team, I’m even more excited to see them get started.
Youngest team to win the Super Bowl. That's what is coming this season. As long as we can avoid our injury curse. (shh, don't say that out loud).
And avoid SF
outside of kicker and a few depth positions packers are quite a complete team
Still need o-line and d-line depth but yeah…contender
i believe we brought in former Georgia kicker Jack Podlesny to compete with Carlson.
@@urbugnmetoday3183we have good oline just need a center that’s it and for dline we need a RE and a DT
@@christianbehnke2880 Right, that's a positive. He can't be worst than Carlson.
True but the draft is for depth & I believe that’s where that will happen.
WHAT!!!! Josh jacobs is the definition of EXPLOSIVE!!! I think you meant to say not as quick as Aaron jones ???
I think GB has a great shot at wining the Division an will go deep in the playoffs this year. Maybe all the way to the SB
See ya in the Championship, baring injury, well take the Superbowl. Reed and Wicks and Love are working out now, In Cali!
LOL
no man lol
The McKinney signing was great and the contract GUTE had him sign was nice too, right at top 5 money for possible the best and youngest safeties in the NFL.
They shore up the offensive line and get some healthy depth per usual, teams better look out
Gotta also add the amount of draft pick we have as well.
Jacobs and McKinney both went to Alabama. The last Packers running back and a safety from Alabama was Eddie Lacy and Ha Ha Clinton-Dix. They had a few good years and then faded rapidly.
mckinney and jacobs are both better
As a Raider fan, do what we never did and feed Jacobs when you have the game in hand.
I didn't even think about free agency cause we always just sit idle but I was shocked at the Josh Jacobs signing
These two free agency signings were just the first step in a great off-season for the Packers. Just wait for this draft. Gutekunst is about to make this his best one yet.
Gutekunst is starting to look like a genius. The whole organization. Good video. I'm going to say either 10 and 7 or 11 and 6. With a solid playoff run included.
I think they did enough and vastly improved in FA. Now with 5 picks in the top 100 of the draft, they can fill more holes in the OL, DL and LB rooms.
best signings we could've hoped for... the Pack is in great hands with Gutey at the helm! #GoPackGo
They did all of this after Rodgers was gone. They literally wasted Rodgers prime and waiting for him to be over and then went out and did something. Pathetic front office
Rodgers was an asshole and wasted their time too Rodgers had many times to win he couldn’t do it
The team just got younger. But I'm gonna love Jones forever. I hope he has a healthy, long career. Maybe he comes back to finish as a Packer???? Would have loved to see Jones and Jacobs together. That would have been unfair to any defense. Jones missed 6 games and rushed for 890 yards.
Either way, I'm excited to see how Gutes vision unfolds.
Go Pack! ❤
Yeah, we've been waiting for someone like Xavier since the days of woodson and nick collins. Super excited to see who they will put next to him (maybe Nubin). With so few holes on this team we can focus on making the o line elite and getting prospects to eventually take over the spots of our handful of older players. This team is built to have sustained success for the next 5+ years.
Go Pack Go!! I'm so stoked for the upcoming season! I'm ready to see my boys back on top.
The vibes are good says Jug 1:05 😅
As a fan I was pissed after Adams and Rodgers but now I'm like wait ok gute let's go. We always find a way to not miss a beat. Jones will be missed though and still kinda pissed he went to Minnesota.
We now just need an excellent all around defense to stop Jones, which I fear won’t happen, because we always seem to fall apart the majority of the time, no matter how hard we try to better it and change this side of the ball
Yea gotta be step ahead in this league and GB is showing that got a younger player that can do the same + more than 33 Gute wants to win rings not just one.
Yeah I miss Adam’s but things change ya know and also we got xavior now.
I have cussed Gute probably over 10,000 times🤣 But I see his plan now. He had a couple of shitty drafts but he had a vision and it's coming to fruition
After signing Jacob's and XMan, I looked at my son and said " bro, we still have the draft yet too 🤪" Yes I made that face. We shore up the Def, with LB, and S, and on Offense, we get an early to mid round RB (Corum, maybe Allen) and OL.... Holy buckets Wolverine, the sky is definitely the limit!
I love the idea of spending top tier money on non-premium positions. When you get one of the best RB and safety’s in the league for a combined ~100 million dollars, that’s insane value for difference makers
All I can say is wow! Scary team up coming years . If the Defense improve wow! The Ground by Josh, the air by Jordon watch out 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Got a top 5 RB and safety. I can't complain 💪🏼
The Packers are always a really solid team. They manage to create a playoff run every year, and people used to say it was mostly Aaron Rodgers, which no doubt he helped, but with his absence they nearly made the playoffs on a complete rebuild year and now they are going to be a huge contender to the Lions after a single down season. Proof of an incredibly well run sports organization.
Pack goes 12 wins at the very absolute lowest. I could see them going 14 wins with relative ease if the key players stay healthy.
We'll never forget you, Erin. 🤗 Good luck on the campaign.
Dude, you can't even spell his name right....
@@michaelbrill6609 That was the point. I've already forget how to spell his name. ;)
Getting McKinney reminds me of the Woodson deal.
If McKinney has the impact of "the Woodson deal". I may wet my pants.
Been a packer fan since 95 and I love been very spoiled. We don't always have a great team be we always have a good team. We don't celebrate division title we only celebrate NFL championships.
This will be the last "I wish we still had Jones" statement ever, but I wish we still had Jones playing alongside Jacobs. That would've been awesome
DL and LT are needed ASAP along with ILB and one more Safety/CB then just more depth
Good thing they have like 10 picks in the first 3 rounds lol
Need to address the LB position, and some depth players at CB/S then we should be good.
Looking forward to this new age rivalry. Its officially back.
Would love to see Nubin, a couple solid corners, a linebacker next to Quay, and some extra bodies for the online in the draft
Packers are going 12-5 in the regular season.
Post-season:
Packers 32 - 12 Buccaneers
Packers 13 - 7 Cowboys
Packers 22 - 19 Lions, Love throwing the game winning touchdown with 30 seconds left
Ravens in the Super Bowl
Packers have always drafted well, but this is the first time in DECADES they've made big moves in free agency.
As a packers fan, im super excited about the guys they kept and brought in. I think we could win 10-12 games this year. Love is a ligit qb.
As a Packer fan, I love A Jones, but let's not forget how many times he could've beat the 49ers if he didn't get gassed and just scored on those long runs. He could've sealed the deal in 2 of those playoff losses.
As a packers fan i just want us to pick up a decent kicker and solidify our O-line.
The rest of our upgrades needs to be development and defensive coaching
I have full confidence in this team, they just need to play as well as we know they can.
Realistically I can see this team (barring any serious injuries) going 13-4/14-3. They are one of the most complete teams in the league. Kicking might be an issue but I believe Carlson or Podlesny will be up to the challenge. Bringing in some competition at kicker will make the difference.
The final record i think we get Atleast 12 or 13 wins
Jacobs will do what he always does. Come into camp once every two years in shape, typically his contract year… kick ass. Then come back 15 lbs heavier the next season… and shit the bed. Just looks at his year to year performance. Like clockwork. But man, when he’s in shape, he’s a game changer.
What are you even talking about? In 5 seasons he's had two seasons only 200 yards short of 1000 yards rushing. He's only missed 10 games his whole career and in 2022 when he led the league in rushing, he had the 29th best o line in the league 😂
We were one of the worst run defenses in the league last year and really we didn't have enough QB pressure/sacks either. I think that is going to be the biggest unsolved problem still remaining. We need to improve the D line in the draft and/or current dudes need to step up.
Draft tacklers
Lifelong Packer fan. I've been thru this with Javon Walker, Jordie, and all the other players and I'll say the same here. Thank you Jones but respectfully fuck you. He's 30;years old , only played 11 games last season, and if he's all for Green Bay then why the hell is he crying over 1 million? If he's that coveted why did he take a 1 mil upgrade over other teams. Footballs a business and dudes just being petty from getting swapped.
Packs gonna be dangerous next year for real. We just need a Box Safety, MLB/DT depth, and O-Line. Maybe another corner but with Ballentine and Nixon getting bigger contracts I feel like CB is less important and feel like they're going to roll with those 4.
Draft is best player available, I really want them to trade up for Mims tbh. With David gone on Tackle we need a replacement and Mims just looks and feels like a guy who you just play blind side tackle for the next 12 years. He's huge, got a good draft combine grade, and one of the best tackles in the draft.
Bringing back Dillon should be interesting I’d honestly have Jacob’s try to help Dillon with his balance then use Dillon as a fb with how good he is at pass pro
If they add 1-2 more good olinemans in the draft they could be a top 5 offense in every category
The amount of upsets I've experienced with mediocre packer safeties, yes, McKinney as a dream pick up is an understatement.
Are there any packer fans out there that think these 2 free agent pick ups remind me of the 90s when the packers landed the late great Reggie white. I mean we got a very young offense plus josh jacobs will be a beast . I think we need to beef up our run game for josh...
The Packers are keeping Dillon, who is 6'0" 248lbs and drafted 5'9" 220lb RB MarShawn Lloyd in the 3rd round.
Jacobs will probably get around 200 yards and 50 catches. He isn't going to lead the league in overall production, but he will be fresher and probably better per carry for it.
I’ve never been so excited about the future of the packers
Biggest (and potentially better) free agency activity from the Packers since 2019. Excited
You sir, were not wrong... Hafley and McKinney was literally what our dreams were made of. #GoPackGo
Really sorry (and surprised) to see Jones go. But I sorta get it. Expensive and getting older (though you wouldn't know it by how he ended last season). Also injuries. Really hope Jacobs can fill his shoes.
Getting rid of Barry was the biggest off season move
GO PACK GO💚💛
I can't say Josh Jacobs name without folllowing it up with Jingleheimer Schmidt
Obviously if these two play the way they’re expected too, this will be MAJOR!!! Go pack!! Sign Julian Blackmon as well to play alongside McKinney!!!
Have a subscription….you nailed it
12-5 or 13-4
At least. If the coaching is good on the defensive side of the ball I expect to be competing for the number 1 seed even though I’d prefer the number 2 so they don’t get rusty over a week. The NFC championship game, while lofty, is my expectations for this team now anything less and I’d be disappointed especially if we have another draft like the last two.
10-7
this season going to be insane
I just wish we could have kept Jones, even relegated to #2RB he could be an asset for the team.
this is going to be a crazy year the schedule is a difficult one. Go pack gooo
I would of offered Jones the rest of his contract and rework Jacob's first year contract with guaranteed money throughout his contract . Both backs would have been a monster offense
Jacobs is three years younger than Jones, and Jones was having some injury issues. Fan favorite or not, all things considered, it was time for GB to move on Jones, and, depending on how healthy Jones can stay, GB may have emerged from the transition even stronger, and younger to boot. GB gets full marks for the switch from Jones to Jacobs. McKinney's acquisition explains itself - he was the best safety on the market, and solves what was a Packer weakness on defense. Full marks again.
Then they brought back Dillon, who is much better when he's not expected to be a 50/50 back. Teams are going to get pounded by Jacobs the whole game, then when he's out? Pounded even more. Might as well draft Braelon Allen in the 5th and make it a power attack that even Lombardi would be jealous of. If health is the biggest question mark for Jacobs, then what else is new compared to Jones? I love Aaron Jones, but he's not built to have as many touches as the Packers need out of their lead back.
Will miss Jones and would’ve love to have him in the backfield with Jacobs. If Jacobs stays healthy, it’ll be great. The addition of McKinney is exciting; would love to see the Packers dominate in the secondary.
We have a glaring hole at ILB. Outside of that, this roster is ready to compete against anyone
I still can’t believe that we got Josh Jacobs and Xavier McKinney
Well, they say that the Packers organization know when to let a good player go for another good player that's younger, and it's been working at the QB position. Now they're doing it with RBs, Aaron Jones for Josh Jacobs.
If we're able to get a guy like Cooper DeJean in the first round to go with those DBs...lethal!!
Imagine having Josh Jacobs come over from Vegas and help us win a ring, I bet Tae Adams gone be punching the air talkin bout it should've been me!! LOL GOPACKGO!!!
Sorry to see Backtiary go.Final record 12 and 5.
29 and 23 on the field look out. Go Pack Go
Man i love seeing my Bama Guys getting paid and taken care in the NFL. Jacobs is an absolute DAWG, Mckinney has that instinct you can't teach and he gets to the ball every play, also a DAWG
History won't repeat itself especially on defense cheaper options and the age won't require us to spend big on these guys in 3-4 yrs Love will get his contract and other guys will get their second contract our window as long as Love is elite is 10 to 15yrs because we can draft and develop better then any team in league!
I love both pick ups hate to see jones go but he is aging and it’s good that we have a rb that can now grow with the team
We kept A. J. Dillon, he is now in a 1 year 'Prove-It' Contract.
It would be nice to get a veteran LB. Maybe White. He is a great run stopper.
10-7 in 2024. Wild Card team for sure.
I will be sad all season about Jones being gone. But I am for sure drafting Jacob’s next year lol
Superbowl here we come
I had Josh Jacops on my fantasy team last year. When he wasn't hurt he didn't impress. Also, Raiders thought they had a better player so Jacops was expendable.
Wish we would've got Patrick Queen too! Defense might have been unstoppable!
Our 4-3 defense will have Walker and Gary going after the QB a lot. Don't need Queen 🤘🏻
wow, this will be the season to hit the superbowl
Raiders fan here. I love Josh, but he can’t stay healthy. He probably has the best cut-back in the NFL, but you gotta hand him the ball 20+ times before he hits a big one. Temper your expectations.
