After flipping their script from last in the NFC North to division champs at 11 and 6, General Manager Ryan Poles says they're flexible ready to. Trade, up, down, or stay put. They built momentum from last year's draft hits on offense, like Titan, Colston, Loveland, leading in catches and yards, receiver Luther Burton. Shining in big spots, and running back Kyle Morning Guy, grinding out 783 rushing yards alongside DeAndre Swift. Quarterback, Caleb Williams, leveled up big time, tossing a franchise record 3942 yards, fueling their first playoff, win in 15 years, over Green Bay, before that overtime heartbreaker against the Rams. Now the focus shifts to defense, where they managed just 35 sacks last season and lost their top safeties in free agency. Assistant GM Jeff King admits they need help, but won't chase needs.
