Packers mock draft Round 4 (135th overall): Shakur Brown, CB, Michigan State

With their first selection in the fourth round, the Packers add their second cornerback in the draft. Shakur Brown has confidence for days and brings the competitiveness to the next level (something he and Alexander have in common). He’d also give Green Bay a defensive back who has great ball skills, something they definitely need more of. Brown can play outside or in the slot which could allow him to be a nickel or dime corner right away.

Packers mock draft Round 4 (142nd overall): Bobby Brown, IDL, Texas A&M

With their second selection in this round, I went with defensive lineman Bobby Brown out of Texas A&M. At 6-foot-4 and 325 pounds, he’d give Green Bay a big body upfront that’s hard to move around. Brown has a very strong base that makes it nearly impossible for just one offensive lineman to handle him on their own. That would be great for the linebackers behind him, as he should open up holes and free up blockers for them to come flying through and bring down the ball carrier. Brown does need to improve his discipline, something the coaching staff should be able to help him with.
