The 2022 NFL offseason has been rampant with headlining moves, from big-name quarterback and wide receiver trades to splashy free-agent signings (we're looking at you, ). Some divisions, meanwhile, have been particularly active, like the AFC West seemingly stocking up in preparation for a playoff race for the ages. What about the NFC North, though, from which the offseason's first big drama -- ' future -- emerged? Which teams in the North have fared well in free agency, and which ones have lots more work to do this offseason?Here's how we'd grade each of the four Marquese Chriss Jersey teams' performances thus far:Key additions: WR ( ), WR ( ), OG (Packers), DE ( ), DT ( )Key lo ses: WR ( ), WR ( ), OG ( ), DT ( ), OLB (Chargers)Sorry, Bears fans, but if you thought the first step of the new regime would be to the team in free agency, well, you thought wrong. Pringle certainly brings speed to the WR room, but they could've used an alpha out wide for , not to mention a more proven starter in the trenches. The better investments are on the other side of the ball, where Muhammad and Jones should help the front seven. Mack's departure, by the way, was understandable, especially considering his contract. It's just that they still have lots of holes to fill and only one draft to do it before Fields kicks off an anticipated year two.Key additions: WR (Jaguars), CB (Chiefs)Key re-signings: WR , Axel Toupane Jersey OLB , S Key lo ses: OLB , LB ( )Nothing crazy here, one way or another. They didn't make a huge splash on either side of the ball, but Chark is an underrated one-year flyer to pair with Reynolds and , giving -- or whomever they may draft at QB -- some solid downfield targets. Hughes and Walker, meanwhile, bring some upside to a still-rebuilding secondary. All in all, you can be content with this performance as a Lions fan, chiefly because the draft awaits and, unlike the Bears, Detroit is well positioned to add premium talent early and often. Let's see if they can Stephen Curry Jersey find a long-term answer under center.Key additions: DT (Chiefs)Key re-signings: WR , TE , LB , CB Key lo ses: WR (Raiders), WR (Chiefs), OT , OG Lucas Patrick (Bears), OLB ( )They get some credit for ensuring Aaron Rodgers stayed put under center, but that feels like a distant memory now, Draymond Green Jersey considering all that's transpired since, namely the abrupt departure of Rodgers' longtime favorite target in Adams. Was Green Bay right to sell Adams before committing record money to a veteran receiver a la the Chiefs with ? in the long run, but wasn't the point of recommitting to A-Rod going for it right now? The other moves aren't particularly inspiring, either; Campbell and Douglas, for instance, were solid play-makers in 2021, but did they deserve a combined $70 million? Green Bay will contend as long as Rodgers and Matt LaFleur are in town, but they got worse in an offseason where lots of teams made major splashes. Key additions: DT ( ), ILB ( ), OLB Za'Darius Smith (Packers)Key lo ses: TE ( ), C (Steelers), S ( )It's hard to get a good read on the Vikings, who were going to be tight on cash anyway. By recommitting to QB and retaining WR , the new regime has probably secured Minnesota another wild-card run, but you could argue a deeper rebuild was the better play. The defense, however, is poised to Tim Hardaway Jersey improve, with Hicks bringing stability and leadership to the middle of the unit alongside , and Smith giving the club a boom-or-bust edge rusher opposite a healthier . Depending on how they resolve pending splits with other veterans like , and , they should remain in the middle tier of .
