Damarious Randall was viewed as the best coverage safety in this year’s NFL draft. The Packers, who took Randall in the first round, think he’s good enough in coverage to play cornerback.

Rob Demovsky of ESPN reports that the Packers are set on playing their first-round pick at cornerback. That’s where he’s been working at minicamp and Organized Team Activities, that’s where he’ll work in training camp and that’s where they want to see him on the field in the regular season.

The Packers like the safeties they have, with Morgan Burnett and Ha Ha Clinton-Dix starting and Micah Hyde and Sean Richardson both capable of playing well at safety as well. Randall has a better chance of getting on the field and making an impact at cornerback.

The Packers also spent their second-round pick on a cornerback, Quinten Rollins. That’s a lot of draft resources to put into one position, a strong sign that they’re seeking improvement at cornerback in Green Bay.
