Packers have quietly already found the perfect Jaire Alexander replacement

The Green Bay Packers' secondary is much weaker than it has been in past seasons, as they decided to finally part ways with the extremely talented but often injured Jaire Alexander. Green Bay effectively replaced him by signing cornerback Nate Hobbs to a huge contract in free agency.

While the Packers will have a high enough floor with the current group they have and a former defensive backs coach in Jeff Hafley leading the unit as the defensive coordinator, they might need one more name from their menagerie of young defensive backs.

Carrington Valentine, who has spent the last two years as a fill-in for Alexander when the Louisville star's body decided to fail him, has been impressing at Packers training camp by picking off two passes and recording a pass breakup while guarding first-round pick Matthew Golden.
