643 - If the Packers Want a Cornerback, When do They Take One?
It’s time to take a look at this year’s cornerback class. This is another spot where the Packers don’t technically have a need, but it wouldn’t hurt to invest either. Where do they pull the trigger?
What does this cornerback class look like?
This year’s cornerback class seems fairly deep, but finding one that suits the Packers needs could be a challenge. That’s because the Packers’ need at corner gets a little complicated. In theory, they’ve got all they need, but in practice they could use someone to bridge the gap between outside corner and the slot.
