He loves all of it, especially the line LaFleur uttered to the media Tuesday about “when you come to the Green Bay Packers, obviously, you respect the tradition, the history, but for us and this football team, it’s about making history.”
Daniels has been a part of five playoff teams, two of which advanced to the NFC Championship Game. To play in a Super Bowl, however, it’s up to the players in today’s locker room to make it happen.
“You can’t forget Brett Favre, Reggie White, B.J. Raji, Clay Matthews, Charles Woodson, those guys aren’t coming back to help us,” Daniels said. “Josh Sitton, Scott Wells, those guys aren’t coming back. Chad Clifton, Nick Barnett, they’re not coming back. This is our time. This is our team. This is us. We have to get it done.”
The byproduct of the injuries to Daniels, Wilkerson and Clark last year was it opened up snaps for Dean Lowry, Montravius Adams and undrafted rookie Tyler Lancaster, who buoyed Green Bay’s defensive line during the final two months.
It’s possible the Packers add to that group over the next three days, especially considering they’ve taken at least one defensive lineman in 22 consecutive drafts. Daniels will be watching the NFL Draft closely over the next few days. If the Packers take a D-lineman, he’ll be waiting with outstretched arms.
