New mock draft proposes Packers trade up in first round for CB

The Green Bay Packers have traded up in the first round during each of the first three drafts run by general manager Brian Gutekunst.

A new mock draft from Chad Reuter of NFL.com proposes Gutekunst and the Packers make it four straight in 2021.

Reuter’s first round had the Packers trading up from No. 29 to take Northwestern cornerback Greg Newsome at No. 22 overall. The cost to move up seven spots was a pair of mid-round picks.

“Cornerback is a position of need for the Packers, and Newsome is the top outside starter remaining on the board.
