The Green Bay Packers know that there are a few moves that need to be made to take that next step. Back-to-back playoff appearances in the Jordan Love era is a remarkable start, regardless. This off-season could see a few more major changes.
Their secondary may be one of the first areas to change.
“Best Of The Best” Packers Suddenly Expected To Add Two Elite Cornerbacks (Report)
Pro Football Network explained the two cornerbacks that Green Bay needs to target this off-season:
23) Green Bay Packers
Shavon Revel Jr., CB, East Carolina
Revel could be the steal of the class. Like Quinyon Mitchell a season ago, Revel was poised to go through the college all-star circuit and display his skills against the best of the best. A good showing in Mobile or Frisco could have cemented top-10 pick status for the 6-foot-2 cornerback, but a season-ending injury killed those dreams.
Still, nobody in the class can effortlessly hinge and carry vertically the way Revel can, and the playmaking cornerback has a Trevon Diggs-like knack for playing out of phase to bait quarterbacks into silly mistakes
87) Green Bay Packers
Zy Alexander, CB, LSU
Sometimes there is a perfect player-team fit in the mid rounds that you can’t take your eyes off of, and Alexander to the Packers to create and Alexander-squared cornerback duo feels perfect even without the name symmetry.
Here is a look at Revel’s colligate stats:
