Round 1 Pick 29 Eric Stokes CB Georgia
Stokes is a 6-1, 190 pound, extremely fast defensive back who more than held his own in the competitive Southeastern Conference. He went up against top flight receivers from LSU’s Justin Jefferson who lit up a rookie season with the Vikings to his LSU counterpart Ja’Mar Chase, the first receiver off the board this weekend. Throw in Alabama’s tandem of Heisman winner DeVontae Smith and Jaylen Waddle, also top 10 picks, and Stokes is ready for what the NFL has to offer. He has a very good chance to be on the field a lot this fall for the Packers by either supplanting the injury prone and inconsistent Kevin King or finding a full time spot in nickel and dime sub-packages.
