Packers round 6 (214th overall): Rachad Wildgoose Jr., CB, Wisconsin

Here’s one that should tug on the heart strings of Packers and Badgers’ fans alike. With their first pick of the sixth round, the Packers grab Rachad Wildgoose out of the University of Wisconsin. Wildgoose isn’t as big as the other cornerbacks the Packers selected earlier, but he’s tough as nails. He could also be a special teams’ contributor.

Packers round 6 (221st overall): Tre Norwood, CB, Oklahoma

With their second pick in round 6, the Packers grab their fourth and final cornerback of the draft in Oklahoma’s Tre Norwood. Norwood will be another year removed from a knee injury that costs him all of his 2019 season and hopefully, some of his explosiveness returns. As of now, he’s a versatile corner who can play all over the field and is as scrappy as they come.
