The Green Bay Packers have a promising young tandem at inside linebacker with last year’s rookie duo of undrafted Krys Barnes and fifth-round pick Kamal Martin. While they had solid debut seasons, can either become a legit difference-maker? Can either be even on par with Blake Martinez?

It’s worth noting the Packers haven’t been shy on rolling the dice on injured players – cornerback Kevin King the obvious example.
