Packers Consider Trevon Diggs for Cornerback Need

0:00On March 23rd, the Green Bay Packers stayed quiet during free agency, especially at cornerback where they have a clear need for depth. They released Nate Hobbs and brought in Benjamin St. Juiced as a backup, but the position remains thin with guys like Bo Melton or Shamar Bartholomew, potentially starting if injuries hit. Earlier this week, talk heated up about resigning Chavon Diggs, whom they claimed off waivers late last season before letting him go. The 27-year-old is a two-time pro-bolaer with 20 career interceptions, including a league high 11 in 2021. Packers fans and analysts see it as a low-risk move on a short-term deal, given the team seven picks last year and multiple draft needs at edge. Russia, defensive tackle, and the offensive line. Diggs could push Casey and Nixon, Carrington Valentine and St. Juiced, without blocking a rookie. Still, it's a gamble with his recent ACL tear and rough stats before that, where quarterbacks lit him up.

1:00Other free agents like Marshawn Latimore and Lajerius Sneed had even worse coverage grades last season. As the draft nears next month, General Manager Brian Goudacunst, my Dow diggs if the board doesn't deliver multiple corners early, balancing. Immediate competition with long-term fixes.
