The Packers were one onside kick away from a shot at playing Tom Brady and the Patriots in the Super Bowl. Their team is one of the most well rounding in the league. They are balanced on both sides of the ball.

Managing to retain Randall Cobb was a huge help to continuing their longtime success.Cobb and Jordy Nelson were the best wide receiver duo in the NFL last year. No matter who you cover, the other one always finds a way to get open.

The Packers should look to add depth to the defensive side of the ball, since it is the weaker unit on the team. They cut former first rounder A.J. Hawk, so they should try to replace him with another viable option. Without Hawk, it leaves a hole at inside line backer. That will affect their run defense, which was already shaky in 2014.

Aaron Rodgers is the best quarterback in the NFL at the moment and as long as he is healthy, you can mention the words Packers and Super Bowl in the same sentence for a very long time.
