Running Back - STRENGTH
This year, the Packers possess one of the strongest Running Back Corps in the NFL. At the same time last offseason, there were concerns about the Packers backfield as it comprised of 2 rookies and a converted Wide Receiver. A year on and there is a lot more optimism due to their impressive displays in 2017.
Ty Montgomery started as the lead back last year until an injury derailed his season. He was a true workhorse in the opening couple of games, being on the field for over 90% of snaps. Even though he impressed when called upon, the former Wide Receiver is entering this training camp as the RB3 in the Packers Offense.

This is due to the impressive form shown by both Jamaal Williams and Aaron Jones. Williams was second on the depth chart to start the year and took over from Montgomery when he got injured. The injury bug once again struck as Williams was the next to go down. Aaron Jones showed that he can lead the backfield with an impressive run of performances. All in all, the Packers have 3 very capable Running Backs on their roster.
There has been talk and speculation all offseason about who will be atop the depth chart come September 9th. Much to the frustration of fantasy owners everywhere, the latest from the Green Bay camp is that it’ll be a ‘committee approach’ at running back this year. Unless someone goes down with injury in the early weeks, expect a 3 headed monster at RB for the Packers this season.
