GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) — The Green Bay Packers made shoring up the secondary their first priority in the NFL draft.
They took Washington cornerback Kevin King with the first selection of the second round on Friday to fill a big need on defense. The 6-foot-3 King adds size and speed to a secondary that was burned in the passing game and maligned by injuries.
Later in the second round, Green Bay took Josh Jones, a 6-foot-2 safety out of North Carolina State. They added beef in the third round by taking 6-foot-4, 304-pound defensive lineman Montravius Adams out of Auburn.
