Wow. It’s a busy Friday for the Green Bay Packers, as they’ve added another quarterback and have an even bigger hole at cornerback.
First, news broke that the Packers had sent former first-round pick Damarious Randall to the Cleveland Browns.

It appears the trade is Randall-for-Kizer, plus the teams will swap a couple draft picks.

Clearly, the Packers were not comfortable with what they saw from Brett Hundley last year, starting in place of Aaron Rodgers. Now, the Packers will have to fill the hole left by Randall at cornerback. Any ideas? Stay tuned.
