Free agent tight end Marcedes Lewis wants to play in 2023 and believes his blocking ability and asking price should be attractive for teams in need of a run-blocker who can mentor young players. The Packers are not interested in retaining Lewis after the team selected two tight ends in the draft. Lewis, who spent the last five seasons with the Packers, turned 39 years old in May and played in 86 total games with the team.
Despite the offseason being over, there are still quality NFL free agents available. Among them are Ezekiel Elliott, who can still provide value as a tough runner and pass blocker, Kenny Golladay, who had a disappointing tenure with the Giants but has shown potential in the past, Leonard Floyd, a reliable pass rusher, Matt Ioannidis, a versatile defensive lineman, and Marcedes Lewis, a top-notch blocker. These players can still bring value to a team in need.
The Green Bay Packers are committed to a youth movement and will rely on a young, mostly untested group of receiving threats this season. With Aaron Rodgers' departure, the team hasn't brought in any veteran pass catchers, and it's looking unlikely that they will.

The best move at this point is to let Love and his young weapons develop together.
The Green Bay Packers have a diverse need for tight ends and may need to select at least one in the upcoming NFL Draft.

Meanwhile, Elgton Jenkins is feeling great and hopes to resume his elite play at left guard. In other news, former Packers LB Clay Matthews and WR Christian Watson earned Senior Bowl honors, and the Washington Commanders may soon have a new owner.
