Yes, we know that this is taking a while!

As many of you know, we here at Notinhalloffame.com are slowly generating the 50 of each major North American sports team.  That being said, we have existing Top 50 lists out and we always consistently look to update them when we can and based on necessity.  As such, we are very happy to present our post-2021 revision of our top 50 Green Bay Packers.

As for all of our top 50 players in football we look at the following: 

1.  Advanced Statistics.

2.  Traditional statistics and how they finished in the National Football League. 

3.  Playoff accomplishments.

4.  Their overall impact on the team and other intangibles not reflected in a stat sheet.

Last year, Green Bay entered the playoffs as the top seed in the NFC, but were bounced in their first game.

As a result of last year, we have one elevation, and one new entry.

As always, we present our top five, which saw one significant change.

1. Brett Favre

2. Aaron Rodgers

3. Don Hutson

4. Forrest Gregg

5. Bart Starr

Aaron Rodgers captured his fourth MVP, and while he did not win a second Super Bowl in 2021, he had an outstanding season, statistically positioning himself as the Quarterback who will eclipse Brett Favre.  He moved from #3 to #2, overtaking first ballot Hall of Famer, Don Hutson.

Wide Receiver, Davante Adams, who was traded to Las Vegas in the off-season, debuts at #40, following his second straight First Team All-Pro.

We welcome your input and comments and as always, we thank you for your support.

Selected in the second round (53rd overall) of the 2014 NFL Draft out of Fresno State—where he led the nation in receptions and touchdown catches—Davante Adams arrived in Green Bay as an intriguing prospect with elite release technique. Through his first two seasons, Adams flashed promise as a secondary option behind Jordy Nelson and Randall Cobb, quietly posting back-to-back sub-500-yard campaigns (446 yards in 2014; 483 yards in 2015) while learning the nuances of Aaron Rodgers' scramble drill and boundary chemistry.

Adams broke out in his third season with 997 receiving yards and 12 touchdowns in 2016, kicking off one of the most prolific multi-year runs by a wide receiver in Green Bay history. Combining footwork, release off the line of scrimmage, and route running, he reeled off five consecutive Pro Bowl selections from 2017 through 2021. Despite facing double coverage, Adams produced five seasons with at least 10 receiving touchdowns, establishing himself as the premier red-zone weapon in professional football.

His Packers tenure reached historic peaks in 2020 and 2021 when he earned back-to-back First-Team AP All-Pro honors. In 2020, Adams delivered a masterclass despite missing two games, leading the NFL with 18 touchdown receptions while hauling in 115 passes for 1,374 yards. He followed up in 2021 by breaking Green Bay's single-season franchise records for both receptions (123) and receiving yards (1,553), serving as the engine for consecutive 13-win teams and back-to-back MVP campaigns for Rodgers.

During Adams' eight seasons in Wisconsin, the Packers reached the postseason six times, capturing five NFC Central/North division titles and making four NFC Championship Game appearances. His uncanny telepathy with Rodgers made the duo one of the most unstoppable quarterback-receiver combinations of the modern era, connecting for 68 regular-season touchdowns—the most by any pairing in franchise history.

The historic partnership concluded in March 2022 when Green Bay traded Adams to the Las Vegas Raiders. He departed Titletown ranked second in franchise history in career receptions (669), second in receiving touchdowns (73), and fourth in receiving yards (8,121).

As we approach the impending 2022 pre-season, we know that it will begin without one of the best Offensive Lineman of the 2010s, Mitchell Schwartz, who has announced that he is retiring from professional football.

Drafted in the Second Round from California in 2012 by the Cleveland Browns, Schwartz won the starting Right Tackle job as a rookie, and started every game for Cleveland for his four years as an NFL player.  Schwartz signed with Kansas City in 2016 as a Free Agent, and it quietly became one of the best signing in franchise history.

Schwartz took his play to the next level with the Chiefs, earning four consecutive All-Pros (three Second Team and one First Team), and was instrumental in the protection of Quarterback, Patrick Mahomes, who led Kansas City to a Super Bowl win in LIV.  Kansas City’s running game was also stellar with Schwartz anchoring the line.

A back injury in 2020, put him on the shelf after six Games, and he was released after the season.  After sitting out 2021, Schwartz elected to call it a career.

We here at Notinhalloffame.com would like to wish Mitchell Schwartz the best in his post-playing career.
