Locked On Packers - Daily Podcast On The Green Bay Packers Locked On Podcast Network

As Kevin Greene once said: "It is time. It is time." It's only going to get tougher for the Packers to a win Super Bowl with the division loading up for a long fight over the North. Plus, is Eric Stokes playing his final season in Green Bay? And who else is under pressure to perform?

While trying to figure out where all these rookie DBs might play, I came across a crucial realization about what this Jeff Hafley defense will likely look like and more importantly these new safeties' roll in it. Plus, why the Year 2 Packers will be even more important than the rookies.

It's spring cleaning time, so what did the Packers find going through their closet after the offseason? What might still need work? Plus, Brian Gutekunst is following Ted Thompson's lead in one vital area and how did the NFC North do in the draft?

The Green Bay Packers sent a clear message with this draft class: the 2024 defense is going to blitz. Plus, what are the early expectations for all these players? And we put a bow on the "reach" conversations around this '24 class.

The Green Bay Packers told us as much about them with who they didn't take as they did with the players they drafted. We go through their Day 3 picks, evaluate the entire draft haul and pick out lessons we can learn about this team moving forward.

Yes. Yes, they did. Green Bay snagged Edgerrin Cooper at 45 after trading back, then Javon Bullard at 58 to strengthen the interior of the Packers defensive spine. Then they grabbed MarShawn Lloyd who, he'll tell you, is the best running back in the draft. The Packers seem to be getting a lot of "best of," players in 2024.
