The Green Bay Packers have a cornerback problem. It's not just fan panic, either, as it sure seems like the team agrees.
According to Easton Butler of Packer Report, the Packers had "spoken to the Browns" about a potential deal for Greg Newsome "several times this year." That dream is now over.
As reported by ESPN's Adam Schefter, the Browns have instead traded Newsome to the Jacksonville Jaguars, and they basically gave him away. It's hard to imagine the Packers couldn't have made a similarly competitive offer.

Per Schefter, Cleveland will receive a seventh-round pick and cornerback Tyson Campbell, while sending Newsome and a sixth-round choice to Jacksonville.
