Kevin King

It may be odd to see Kevin King on this list, but he’s one of the best examples of a high-risk, high-reward cornerback out there. Unfortunately, he went out as a bust in the NFC Championship which makes it unlikely Green Bay re-signs him.

However, if they are able to move past that egg he laid, King has considerable upside still. At 25-years-old, his best football could be ahead of him if he can stay healthy. He has good size and athleticism, he just needs to improve his discipline, fundamentals and tackling.
