The Green Bay secondary has been very good this season, and the talent they have acquired in the last couple of drafts will allow them to focus on other parts of the defense heading into the next decade.

Chase Winovich may be a bit of a reach with the last pick of the first round, but he has the range and speed to make plays similar to A.J. Hawk and Clay Matthews. He has been a playmaker on one of the best defenses in the country.

He finished the regular season with 52 tackles, 13 tackles for a loss and four sacks. Those numbers are down compared to last year but Winovich should still be able to help a defense ranked fourth in sacks but in the bottom third for rushing defense.
