3. Lucas Patrick
Words can’t even describe how important protecting Aaron Rodgers is going to be moving forward for the Packers after looking at some of the injuries the Packers quarterback has been dealing with over the last two seasons.

As for whether Lucas Patrick will be back in the picture, well if the guard ends up hitting the open market in free agency, this should be one of the players the Rams keep an eye on to provide some depth to the offensive line.
Originally, Patrick signed with Green Bay in 2016 as an undrafted free agent, and would spend that season on the team’s practice squad before joining the active roster the following year.
Since then, Patrick has appeared in 26 games for the Packers (six starts), and seems to be the kind of player who gets better with experience, making the guard an even more intriguing option for free agency.
Patrick may not be one of those players who would earn a starting spot right away if he were to join the Rams, but adding some extra depth on top of the potential to develop into another key member of the offensive line in a new system could make this a steal.
