Draft misses create perpetual need at cornerback for Packers

The Green Bay Packers’ need at cornerback entering this offseason is not for a lack of trying.

Over a four-year stretch between 2015 and 2018, the Packers used five first- or second-round picks on the cornerback position, including four picks in the top 50. Of the five, only one – All-Pro Jaire Alexander – is a hit. The others? Well, they represent the reason why cornerback remains a perpetual need in Green Bay.

It would not be shocking if general manager Brian Gutekunst uses another top-50 pick on a cornerback come April.

Four big misses has the position looking ghastly entering the offseason.
