Linebacker – WEAKNESS
The Linebacking corps should be a strength for the Packers on paper. But each year the Packers' main pass rushers seem to be hampered by injury. The two players I’m talking about are Nick Perry and Clay Matthews. Matthews was one of the best OLB’s in the league once upon a time. In recent years he’s struggled with injuries which have really affected his ability to get to the opposing QB.

Perry had similar struggles last season after having a very strong 2016. At ILB, Blake Martinez impressed in 2017, recording the most tackles in the league with 144. He also played 979 of 1052 defensive snaps for the Packers, which ranked second on the team. He was joined at ILB by second-year player Jake Ryan, who will look to improve on his snap percentage of 48.2%.
