Packers 2014 Offensive Line

One of my STRONG believes at ANY level of football is a GREAT offensive line!  Could the Packers be on the threshold of a GREAT O-Line?

Centers
JC Tretter
Corey Lindsley
Garth Gerhart

Guards
TJ Lang
Josh Sitton
Lane Taylor
Andrew Tiller
Jordan McCray
John Fullington

Tackles
David Bakhtiari
Brian Bulaga
Don Barclay
Derrick Sherrod
Aaron Adams
Jeremy Vujnovich

First Center, this is the BIG question mark.  Losing Dietrich-Smith is a concern.  JC Tretter could solve the Packers center position for the rest of Rogers career!  Corey Lindsley could be a great back-up and eventually pushing Tretter!

Guards are solid - Lang & Sitton.  At ages 26 & 28 still young and have played a lot of football!  And both players are able to move around the line to provide depth!  Should have another solid season!

Tackles are getting scary deep!  BUT, need to stay healthy!  Bakhtiari & Bulaga will start and Barclay & Sherrod are provide great depth and will push for playing time!  I think, with these 4 solid tackles, the Packers may have the best depth at tackle in the league!

That is, by my count, 8 offensive lineman.  It will be VERY difficult for the other offensive lineman to stick!  At center Gerhart has some experience, but have trouble beating out Tretter & Lindsley.  At guard, Taylor, Tiller, McCray, & Fullington are fighting to stick!  McCray & Fullington are rookies, while Taylor & McCray are in their second year.  The extra experience will help, but chances are one of these four will still on the practice squad.

Tackles, good luck to Adams & Vujnovich!  These two guys are really fighting for a spot!  They are young, but the 4 tackles in front of them will be hard to beat!

I like what I see!  STAY HEALTHY!
