Packers rumors: Todd McShay picks falling Michigan star as Jaire Alexander replacement

The Green Bay Packers have some work to do with their defensive backroom. After the Packers could trade Jaire Alexander, Todd McShay has his eyes on someone special, with that being Will Johnson.

The Michigan standout is the No. 2-ranked defensive back in the 2025 NFL Draft. Although Travis Hunter is the clear favorite, it doesn't take away from his impact.

In his scouting report, some notes can easily encourage the Packers to make the move.

“Johnson is a big cornerback with easy/fluid movement skills and excellent instincts,” the report reads.
