3. Packers:

Demaryius Randall, Quinten Rollins, Kevin King, Davon House, Ladarius Gunter

The Packers cornerbacks were their defensive weakness last season. Last season Randall missed six games and Rollins missed five. Even when the two played, the second-year cornerbacks struggled at times. Both are high athletes but now entering year three this is make or break time.

The struggles of those two forced Gunter into a lot of playing time. It did not fare well for Gunter and he proved last season that he is a bottom of the roster caliber player. The team went and brought Davon House back to Green Bay, and he is likely to see a lot of slot time. They also spent their first pick, a second rounder on King this season. King has an extreme athletic upside and while he is raw, he has upside to turn into an outside threat.

While there is youth in the group, there are just as many questions as there are positives in each of the Packers cornerbacks games.
