There is no proven OL depth. Who is the back up Center? Who is the swing guard? Jason Spriggs has to be considered a disappointment in year 2 so far as is Murphy. Matthews and Nick Perry need to stay healthy, which they have rarely done. Jayrone needs to step it up. Fackrell is crap. Biegel will maybe help some by mid season. Damarious Randall can't stay healthy and doesn't appear to be much good when he does play. King has skills and will hopefully develop, but it's going to take him some time. OK, having vented a bit, I'm really ready to watch Josh Jones hit some people. May the injury gods be on our side for a change this season.
My fears.

You realize Jones was injured before you posted this?

There's no doubt that quality depth on the offensive line and as edge rusher as well as the talent level at cornerback and possibly inside linebacker are huge question marks entering this season.
It's essential that several players on the defensive side of the ball step up for the unit to give the team a chance to win another Super Bowl.

Your concerns are valid, however, like any team, the Packers just need to finally have an overall healthy year. No team has an abundance of talent and proven backup's at every position. There are positions where you know if someone gets hurt that its going to be hard to replace. Then again, thats how new players can rise to the occasion and new stars are born.

Oh yeah, also the pass rush.

but dude... you're a ghost driving a skeleton powered by sugar fueled meat that has the ability to break star stuff into chunks - SOMETHING THAT ONLY OTHER STARS CAN DO!

There's absolutely no chance the Packers stay fully healthy all season. That's why teams need quality depth on the roster and there's definitely reason for concern about that on the offensive line as well as at edge rusher, inside linebacker and cornerback entering the season.

I think the Packers will be fine at running back and on the defensive line.
Yeah really, we are doomed. WE DON'T HAVE ALL-PRO BACKUP OFFENSIVE LINEMAN!!! If that is the worst that happens to us ... you think Bills, Rams, or Jets fans would like our problems? Quick, who is Tom Brady's backup center. How many starts does he have? I won't debate the defense yet.
