Cowboys Pick Chris Johnson with Packers' Draft Pick

The Green Bay Packers, who traded their first-round pick to the Dallas Cowboys last year, are now watching as the Cowboys use that pick on San Diego State cornerback Chris Johnson, a player Packers fans have been eager to see drafted. Cornerback is a significant need for the Packers, and Johnsons impressive skills and rising draft stock make it less likely hell fall to their second-round pick. Johnsons Pro Football Focus grades rank him among the top three cornerbacks nationally in coverage, and his pass-rush skills are also noteworthy. However, his run defense is a weaker spot. The Packers trade of their first-round pick for Micah Parsons has proven to be a good move, as Parsons has been a game-changer for the Cowboys. As the draft unfolds, Packers fans will be watching to see if Johnson ends up with the Cowboys, the team that benefited from their trade.
