5 Packers who should make first Pro Bowl in 2021
1. Jaire Alexander
Jaire Alexander was also in our locks to become a Pro Bowler article, but he slides in here as well, as he’s failed to make the Pro Bowl in each of his first two seasons. However, his case to make it was never as strong as it is now and he should be a no-brainer.
Defensive coordinator Mike Pettine is trusting Alexander more and more each week and has begun to put him on his own island, allowing the safeties to focus on helping the other side of the field. This is a huge development, as Alexander is quickly becoming one of the best cornerbacks in the entire NFL.
In just his third season and at just 23-years-old, there’s no limit to how good he can become. He possesses the speed, quickness and intelligence to defend anybody in the league. Perhaps, he’ll begin to force more turnovers if quarterbacks begin testing him more.
