I wrote last week how I felt that new GM Brian Gutekunst should target Malcolm Butler to upgrade the Packers cornerback position. It’s no surprise that I feel that one of the Packers greatest weaknesses on defense is their secondary. This position group has been an extreme mess since Sam Shields went out with an…
Being a quality defensive back in Green Bay is underrated, for some reason. In the past decade, there has been a near laundry list of quality defensive backs in town, with deserved recognition few and far between.
