If the Packers don't choose to make Eliot Wolf their next general manager, another team will.

For better or worse, Rodgers is the Packers' best chance at winning another Lombardi Trophy, and they're running out of time. 

Early Wednesday, Packers team doctor Pat McKenzie and other medical experts were evaluating Aaron Rodgers' recent CT scan and deliberating whether...

The 2017 season has, needless to say, become divisive within the Packers fan base. 

There was a lot to like in Green Bay's 31-28 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 12, aside from the final result.  One of those bright spots absolutely has to be inside linebacker Blake Martinez, who is quickly becoming one of the Packers' best defenders.

Is it fair to be encouraged that the Green Bay Packers defense put together a cohesive and effective performance against the Chicago Bears in Week 10, limiting them to 16 points and keeping them out of the red zone for the entire game? Absolutely. But let's keep things in perspective. 

Brett Hundley is just a symptom, not a cause, of what ails the Green Bay Packers. 

It's great that Green Bay has found a spark in the running game in Aaron Jones, but what does all this mean for converted running back Ty Montgomery? 

Packers quarterback Brett Hundley has spent the last three years training for one thing and one thing only: to be able to step into the starting quarterback position should anything keep Aaron Rodgers from fulfilling that role. 

 Let's be honest: when your team has Aaron Rodgers under center, you can break every rule in the book.

The Packers have one of the NFL's most coveted weapons in Ty Montgomery—a running back who can churn out yards after contact and also line up as a wide receiver to create matchup nightmares for opposing defenses. 

After three weeks of play, Green Bay has a turnover differential of minus-2, which is tied for 22nd in the league.

By now, the storyline is familiar: the Green Bay Packers offense gets off to a slow start in the first half before putting together an incredible, come-from-behind second-half push.

The Green Bay Packers went with a familiar formula on offense in their 17-9 win over the Seattle Seahawks in Week 1.  That's fine, but it's about time for head coach Mike McCarthy to start showing off the new tricks he has up his sleeve in 2017. 

The Green Bay Packers were smart to sign guard Lane Taylor to an extension, but the depth behind him and the rest of the positions on the offensive line could spell disaster this season.

The Packers moved up nine spots in the second round of the 2016 NFL draft to select offensive lineman Jason Spriggs at No. 48 overall.  But a little more than a year later, some aren't sure that move is paying dividends. 

In the Green Bay Packers' Week 2 preseason bout with Washington, cornerback Josh Hawkins, an undrafted agent in 2016, was thrust into a starting role at cornerback due to injuries to Davon House and Damarious Randall. 

The Green Bay Packers always look for their players to make significant strides in their sophomore seasons, and heading into his second season, 2016 fifth-round selection Trevor Davis is doing everything right. 

Football has been but a distant memory for the past six months, so it's only natural that when training camps roll around, people get extremely excited about any positive developments from players new and old. That enthusiasm, however, can color the way we view what we see in training camp practices, which, it's crucial to remember, are only a one piece of a very large puzzle. 

Could the Packers choose not to sign any undrafted free agents to the 53-man roster for the first time in Ted Thompson's tenure this season? 

Over the last week, the Internet has been abuzz about the fact that Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers will reach the milestone of throwing 300...

When the Green Bay Packers signed veteran defensive tackle Ricky Jean Francois to a one-year deal on March 23, it appeared to be a solid but unflashy addition to bolster depth on the defensive line.  However, as the season inches closer, the possibility that Jean Francois will make considerable contributions in 2017 continues to grow.

How many strikes will it take before the Green Bay Packers organization decides that Letroy Guion is out?

Picture this (and then knock on the nearest wooden object): Aaron Rodgers goes down with an injury early in the 2018 season, and the player sitting...

It might take three months or three years, but rookie cornerback Kevin King could eventually become a starting outside corner for the Packers. However, the team has yet to really get him on the field and see what he can do.  Until now. 

Having some firepower at tight end this season will be a huge boon to the Green Bay Packers offense, but it's very likely that the free-agent addition that will have the biggest impact on the field this season is neither Martellus Bennett nor Lance Kendricks, but cornerback Davon House. 

The Green Bay Packers allowed linebacker Jayrone Elliott to reach free agency back in March for the first time in his career, but, thankfully for their pass-rushing corps, he decided to re-sign with the team after weighing his options. 

 It's time to stop asking if Montgomery is capable of being a workhorse back for the Packers and start paying attention to the strides he continues to make at the position. 

The Packers will feel the loss of Micah Hyde all over the field in 2017, obviously in the secondary but also on special teams, where he returned 76 punts over his four-year career in Green Bay.

On Friday, May 5 and Saturday, May 6, the Green Bay Packers held their rookie minicamp for their 10 draft selections and additional undrafted free agents and tryouts.
