Quincy Wilson

CB, Florida

Sitting at 4-6, the Green Bay Packers knew they would have to run the table if they wanted to make it to the playoffs. Quarterback Aaron Rodgers let Packer Nation know that would be the case, and he went out and did just that, winning the NFC North on the final day of the regular season. After two great wins in the Wild Card and Divisional Round, the Packers headed to Atlanta to take on the Falcons for a spot in Super Bowl LI.

While they would eventually lose to the Falcons, there was no denying that this was an incredible season. There was also no denying that they need help in the secondary, and that is where they should target in the 2017 NFL Draft. There is a plethora of good cornerbacks in this draft, with Quincy Wilson of Florida being a first round talent.

Wilson has teamed with Teez Tabor to give the Gators the best cornerback tandem in the SEC, and both will likely hear their name called in the first round in April. Wilson has incredible skills at the position, as he has the ability to shut down one half of the field. He is going to be a good one at the cornerback position at the next level, and it will be interesting to see if he or Tabor are the better pro.
