Packers bold prediction for final roster: Keep Kabion Ento over Isaac Yiadom

The Packers are extremely top-heavy at cornerback with Jaire Alexander expected to do a lot of the heavy lifting for the team. There’s a drop-off after him where Eric Stokes, Kevin King and Chandon Sullivan should all be serviceable.

What’s not being talked about enough, however, is the even bigger dropoff to the next group of corners. Shemar Jean-Charles, Kabion Ento and Isaac Yiadom have all been unimpressive this summer and are making decisions difficult for the front office. Jean-Charles is probably on the roster due to his draft status, leaving the final decision down to Ento and Yiadom. While neither player instills confidence, Ento probably makes the team due to his bigger potential down the road.
