GREEN BAY, Wis. -- Three years ago, the Green Bay Packers drafted cornerbacks with their first- and second-round picks. The first-round pick, Damarious Randall, flopped and was traded last month to the Browns. The second-round pick, Quinten Rollins, still has a shot to factor into the rotation.
Nearly 20 years ago, they used their first three picks on cornerbacks. Much like the 2015 draft, it was the last of the cornerbacks taken who made it. Third-round pick Mike McKenzie turned into a standout -- before his contract holdout led to his exit -- while first-round pick Antuan Edwards moved to safety and made minimal impact and second-rounder Fred Vinson was traded to the Seahawks in the Ahman Green deal.
