The Packers are going to have to figure out a new plan for cornerback in 2021, and we could get a huge hint depending on what they do with Chandon Sullivan and Kevin King. Sullivan handled the slot duties last season, but was targeted more and more as the season went on. It’s safe to say he couldn’t hold his own. King was also exposed in the NFC Championship Game and it’s likely Green Bay could want to move on from him.

Corey Linsley is the best player on this list, but plays a less important position. Green Bay also has a number of options to replace Linsley including moving left guard Elgton Jenkins to center. It’s because of that reason he comes in at no. 5 and not higher on this list as his talent suggests.
