Packers selection Round 4 (135th overall): Benjamin St-Juste, CB, Minnesota

I went back to the cornerback well for this one considering Green Bay’s needs at the position, They did re-sign Kevin King for 2021 but it’s only a one-year deal and they must figure out a long-term solution down the road. It’s clear that the solution isn’t already on the roster.

Benjamin St-Juste provides the height (6-foot-3) at the position Green Bay covets opposite Jaire Alexander. His wingspan of 80 inches also makes him even more of a lengthy threat on the outside. What Packers’ fans may like most about his game is his tackling ability. He uses textbook form and is very reliable when it comes to bringing down ball carriers. His biggest question marks are his speed and game experience.
