Last week OBJ, this week Dez Bryant for Packers CB LaDarius Gunter

ARLINGTON, Texas -- When the 2015 NFL draft weekend wrapped up, the Green Bay Packers felt confident they had found their shutdown cornerback of the future.

If it wasn't first-round pick Damarious Randall, then surely it would be second-rounder Quinten Rollins.

Yet when defensive coordinator Dom Capers sits down these days with his assistant coaches and decides whether to match one of his cornerbacks against the opponent's No. 1 receiver, it's someone else the Packers picked up that May 2015 weekend who's the focus of the discussion.

Whether it's because of injury (Rollins and veteran Sam Shields) or performance/injury (Randall), the Packers' designated shutdown cornerback -- if Capers chooses to go that route -- is a former undrafted free agent who joined that 2015 rookie class for a signing bonus of just $5,000.
