Summary

The Packers actually ranked dead last defensively last season but still finished fifth in fantasy scoring in most formats. The secondary did a great job last season of creating turnovers and scoring with all those interceptions. Green Bay had an amazing 31 interceptions, which lead the league. They might allow some yards through the air but the secondary will make some big plays as well. Expect more of the same this season. The Packers struggled a little getting after the quarterback, though, notching 29 sacks. The Packers hoped rookies Nick Perry and Jerel Worthy can provide more of a pass rush for the team. The rush defense is stout with defensive tackle B.J. Raji stacking the middle. The special teams is dynamite with Randall Cobb handling the return duties. He made big play after big play last season and should be excellent again in 2012.
FANTASY OUTLOOK
The Packers continue to produce a lot of touchdowns defensively and on special teams, making them a top fantasy defense. They will allow more yards and points then your typical top fantasy defense/special teams but the interception and touchdown potential make them a top squad.
