As the NFL Scouting Combine edges closer, we continue looking back at the Green Bay Packers’ performances in Indianapolis. Moving along to the cornerback position, we find a few trends among the four players on the roster who were invited to partake in the event.
There are a pair of trends visible here among the corners, one of which is well-documented and the other which is clearly illustrated in these results. First, the Packers have a height cut-off for their corners, having never drafted a player shorter than 5 feet, 10-5/8 inches under Ted Thompson. The other measureable trend related to the players’ 3-cone drill times - three of the four players drafted have times around 6.8 seconds, which are excellent results in that drill. The other one is Quinten Rollins, a second-round pick, while LaDarius Gunter ended up in Green Bay after going undrafted.
Here are the results for the corners who attended the Combine during their draft years.
