Green Bay Packers general manager Brian Gutekunst has been praised for his offseason work to date, and for good reason.
But it’s not just the big moves he’s made that has impressed. For a moment let’s forget about his two trades that saw the Packers land one of the draft’s top cornerbacks, as well as a 2019 first-round pick.
Let’s forget about the additions of Jimmy Graham and Muhammad Wilkerson.
In the past week, Gutekunst has made two smart signings: Byron Bell and Marcedes Lewis. These two players aren’t big names, and they won’t even necessarily become major contributors in Green Bay.
