When Brian Gutekunst took over as Green Bay Packers general manager three years ago, cornerback was the team’s biggest need.

Gutekunst made sure that was no longer the case once the offseason was over. He used his top two draft picks at cornerback, selecting Jaire Alexander and Josh Jackson. He also brought back veteran Tramon Williams.

While Jackson hasn’t lived up to expectations, Alexander has become an All-Pro and one of the best cornerbacks in the NFL. Williams had two great seasons with the Packers and played an important role in the slot.
