4. LT Rasheed Walker
The offensive line for the Packers is arguably their deepest position group. But, that didn’t stop Rasheed Walker from performing at a high level. Squarely on the roster bubble coming into training camp, the 2022 seventh-round pick earned the backup left tackle spot.
He showcased some versatility, also getting snaps in at right tackle. He played 143 snaps overall and was the {ackers highest graded pass blocker. On top of that, he was the NFL’s highest-rated pass blocker among players who had at least 100 snaps in the preseason.
Walker is, at the very least, the backup to David Bakhtiari entering the 2023 season. He received some first-team right tackle reps as well, so he could be the first player called upon should anyone in the starting lineup falter.
3. EDGE Kingsley Enagbare
The pass-rushing depth for the Packers last season wasn’t great. When Rashan Gary went down with an injury, the team’s production fell off a cliff as no one was able to get after the quarterback other than Preston Smith.
This season, that should change. The Packers look to have some excellent depth on the edge, with one of those players being Kingsley Enagbare. He was a multifaceted star in the preseason, shining as both a defender and special teams contributor.
The Year 2 jump looks real for Enagbare, who should factor into the mix alongside Gary and Smith this season. At the very least, the Packers know that they have another special teams standout should his playing time on defense be squeezed by those two, first-round pick Lukas Van Ness and Justin Hollins.
