The Green Bay Packers are 11-4 and have clinched a playoff spot. Their offensive line has been a big part of their success so far this season, but they could make a big change to the group in the offseason.
While listing Packers who would not be back in 2025, FanSided’s Rucker Haringey predicted the team would move on from Josh Myers and draft his replacement.
“Josh Myers is the weakest starter on a strong offensive line for the Packers this year. The veteran has struggled in pass protection but his biggest weakness is as a run blocker. His inability to hold up in the interior has caused running back Josh Jacobs to work too hard to break tackles this season. Myers has been bad enough to get benched by a lot of teams,” wrote Haringey. “The Packers, unfortunately, don’t have a realistic option to replace him on the current roster. That will change this offseason. Green Bay will let Myers leave via free agency and look to bring in a veteran and a rookie to occupy the top two spots on their depth chart in 2025.”
Haringey predicted the team would draft University of Iowa center Logan Jones. Jones is a former tightened who could be a “mid-round steal” for the Packers as they plan for life post-Myers.
“Drafting an offensive lineman from Iowa is typically a good strategy for NFL teams looking for help in the trenches. That’s why the Packers should take a long look at Logan Jones as a potential mid-round steal to help plug their hole at center,” wrote Haringey. “Jones is relatively new to the offensive line because his athleticism allowed him to play tight end earlier in his career. He’s got outstanding lower-body strength that helps him drive defensive tackles in the run game. Combine that with his excellent mobility and it’s easy to understand how he can turn into a massive upgrade over Myers by the time his rookie season wraps up.”
