The Packers' starting lineup on offense doesn't look much different than it did last season. Rookie pass-catchers Ty Montgomery (third-round draft pick) and Adrian Coxson (undrafted), however, are ascending quickly at wide receiver. Montgomery is also the No. 1 kick-returner and Micah Hyde's backup for punt returns.
On defense, Clay Matthews is listed as a starting outside linebacker opposite Julius Peppers, with Sam Barrington and Nate Palmer manning the first-team inside linebacker positions. Damarious Randall and Quinten Rollins -- Green Bay's first- and second-round picks in this year's draft -- still trail Casey Hayward for the starting cornerback role opposite Sam Shields.
