A D Henry sign would be fun, BUT, there are some Jones like RB's available in the draft. 2nd, 3rd and even 6th and 7th rounders. That said, GB is blessed in that they don't have some meddling greedy owner and should max out the salary cap every year.
The Packers don't need anymore older, high priced players...the cap is tied up by six players (Bakhiarti, Clark, Jones, Smith, Alexander, and Campbell). The Packers can't do anything until they address these players, and the last thing we want are more void years or another nightmare high priced player.
There is only one reason this Packers team didn't make or win the superbowl this season. That would be due to their coach who absolutely refuses to run the damn ball on 1st downs. 4 incompletions in first half vs SF on 1st downs when he should of ran with A Jones cost GB. The Packers had beaten KC in 2023 plus scored more points vs them than any other team. Matt is a guru in the pass game without doubt. But he doesn't deserve to have Aaron Jones. He refuses to give him 25+ touches with consistency. Refuses to run the ball on 1st downs. It is his weakness & for me why I dislike his play calling & am very skeptical of his coaching. Aaron Jones remains the heart & soul of this team. Packers number one resigning priority. Time to say goodbye to AJ Dillion. Emanuel Wilson needs to take that role & be better. Packers need to draft or get someone in free agency to mentor as A Jones replacement. Jordan Love needs to continue to be a great ball control QB like he was 2nd half of season. He was 9-1 in games he threw no interceptions in the 2023 season. Manage the ball. He does that & continues to develop he'll be an elite QB in this league without a doubt. WR/TE room is strong. Provided Tyler Davis is brought back to compliment Kraft & Musgrave. Tyler Davis was also the Packers best special teams player in 2022 the Packers need him. Ben Simms also has looked good with his limited opportunities. Strongest room in years. Josiah Deguara needs to be cut. Henry Pearson needs a chance to be the starting fullback. Packers have 7 competent wide receivers in that room it is one of the team's strengths now. The only glaring need on offense other than finding a mentor for Aaron Jones is the O line. Only Zach Tom & Elgton Jenkins are studs on this line. Walker has been solid at tackle. Josh Myers continues to under achieve as a high second round pick from the draft. Jon Runyan Jr must be cut. Sean Rhyan former 3rd round pick needs to get his opportunity. Right guard & center are the two weakest links on this O line two targets for the draft. There is also a need to add a tackle for depth & to increase competition on the O line. It's also time to say goodbye to the under achieving Royce Newman & Yosh Nijman. They remain elite as pass blockers. Run blocking has been abysmal that needs to improve. GB offense has most of what it needs now to compete for a superbowl. Just don't regress! The defense is the problem. Where the majority of the Packers 2024 draft capital needs to go. GB must improve on defense. If they intend to play man coverage they need shutdown players. CB & safety are the priority in this draft. Where the majority of the 2024 draft capital must go! Jaire Alexander needs to regain his probowl form. Past 2 seasons been injury prone & subpar. Carrington Valentine needs to prove he can play like last season & become a solid starter. Eric Stokes has been another Gutekunst 1st round blunder. Contract year for him in 2024. Corey Balentine over performed as a UFA but is not a long term answer. Good plug & play. Safety Anthony Johnson Jr 7th round pick did well with his limited opportunities in 2023. Like Valentine he needs to prove he can be a solid starter & build on his past season. Jonathan Owens did well but again only a good plug & play player. Need a stud in that room. Rudy Ford is a very solid piece but is an aging player. If he is cheap be good to bring back. Keisean Nixon underperformer in the secondary with likely to high a price tag to retain. Need at least one more shutdown CB to add to that secondary. Safety needs more depth. This team was one of the worst in the NFL in man coverage & much better in zone coverage. 3 game stretch vs Bryce Young, Baker Mayfield & Tony Devito GB man coverage was torched. Someone for D line can actually stop the run! Wyatt is a great pass rusher but abysmal vs run. They gave up 200+ on the ground vs the 4 teams leaned into the run 2023 -ATL, PIT, DET, PIT. Devondre Campbell likely to get cut due to his large contract ILB also a need in the draft now. Edge room is solid provided they bring back Preston Smith again next season. Mr consistent. Rashan Gary needs to be better. He disappeared the last quarter of the season for the Pack. I'd love to see Brenton Cox Jr get more opportunity with this unit next year for the Packers. Rich Bisaccia has under performed with special teams. That must be better without a doubt. Carlson over achieved first half of 2023 then under achieved the second half of 2023. The long snapper is very suspect. Nixon is too expensive to bring back most likely. Tyler Davis's return will help some in 2024. But it has to be much much better next year. Brian Gutekunst has only brought in two big name players during his tenure as GB GM. Darius & Preston Smith. Like his predecessors he has been useless in free agency. With draft capital & more salary capital flexibility in 2024 that needs to change. A running back in a buyers market would be a wise move. Get a proven talent. The O line & D line could both use another stud. CB & safety also need a stud. Go Pack Go!
great breakdown!
Thanks for the over view

Packers should go after Derrick Henry if Dillon goes
