Packers could still land dream cornerback even without a first-round pick

After losing to the dreaded rival Chicago Bears in the playoffs, the Green Bay Packers have their work cut out for them if they want to avoid being one-and-done in 2026. Among their top priorities on their to-do list this offseason is adding reinforcements at corner.

The issue is that the Packers, as of this writing, are nearly $6 million over the cap. And even if they manage to free up a bit of space, it may not be nearly enough to pursue a top-tier corner in free agency, such as Jamel Deal. Compounding the issue is that Green Bay gave up its 2026 first-round pick as part of the Micah Parsons trade, and their earliest selection in this year's draft comes at No.
