Packers’ needs in the draft
Cornerback: The Packers re-signed Kevin King to a one-year deal, but they still need a second starting outside corner opposite Jaire Alexander for the long term. If King plays well enough to warrant a bigger contract next offseason, it’ll likely come from another team. And if King gets hurt again this season, the Packers could have an early draft pick to fill in. Alexander proved this season to be one of the game’s best at his position en route to second-team All-Pro honors. But as the Buccaneers showed in the NFC Championship Game, Green Bay having one shutdown corner is only so effective against a good offense. Chandon Sullivan, Josh Jackson and Ka’dar Hollman don’t seem ready to handle the responsibilities of a starting outside cornerback in the NFL.
