On Day 1, the Packers stayed in the 29 spot and took Eric Stokes, cornerback out of Georgia. Unlike last year, the pick didn't produce a collective gasp from the state of Wisconsin. Cornerback was seen as a need for the Packers even before the NFC Championship Game. And, while it might not have been the name some of us expected, taking a cornerback with the first pick is something that makes a lot of sense.
