The Green Bay Packers addressed their biggest need in the 2018 NFL Draft by making their first two picks cornerbacks. Jaire Alexander and Joshua Jackson bring much-needed speed, athleticism, and playmaking ability into the secondary.
Those two alone should shore up a unit that bled yards in chunks last season. And even beyond them, the Packers made some very intriguing picks that should make them feel a whole lot better heading into training camp this summer.
They also added an athletic freak in Oren Burks at outside linebacker, an offensive tackle Cole Madison, a punter JK Scott, three wide receivers J’Mon Moore, Marquez Valdes-Scantling and Equanimeous St. Brown, as well as a defensive tackle, a long-snapper and another outside linebacker to end the draft.
Overall, the Packers hit every need on their roster and the 2018 season should be an interesting one. I expect big things this year from our defense which was absolutely pitiful for us last season.
