But in order for that to happen, the Packers should go after Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie. The disenfranchised cornerback has been suspended by the Giants for throwing his coach Ben McAdoo under the bus and isn’t exactly a shining beacon of cohesiveness.
Is it a big decision for coach Mike McCarthy? Sure. Do you heed to your player’s wishes and let him play or do you make him sit to protect him from himself?

From former first-round picks looking to fulfill their potential to established veterans who can elevate their game, Aaron and Bill break down which players have the most to prove and why their performances could have a major impact on the Packers' success this season.
