We already discussed Shields, Clinton-Dix, Burnett, & Rookies - Randall & Rollins.
Let's start with players that could break into starting line-up:
Casey Hayward - 5'11" - 194 lbs
Hayward already has played a lot of football! He already has demonstrated ability to cover, by playing the slot receiver the past two years. As a rookie, he was the leading rookie defensive back in interceptions. His only issue is durability! In fact, as I write this, Hayward is hurt and missing OTA's! As of now, Hayward is the starter at corner replacing Williams. Time will tell!
Micah Hyde - 6'0" - 197 lbs
Hyde, as Hayward, has experience. Hyde has played both safety & corner. Hyde has contributed on special teams. And as Packer leadership says, "Hyde is a football player!" Hyde, like Hayward, is a ball hawk, he has great instincts! And as of now, Hyde is penciled in a the slot receiver cover man. Again, time will tell!!!
Now the rest:
Corners - Goodson & Taylor-Wright have had time in a Packer uniform. Practice squad & some 53 man roster time. Looks like they will have first shot at the 53 man roster. Rookies - Blake & Manning are un-drafted free agents and a long shot! BUT, starter Sam Shields was an un-drafted free agent!
