Round 6 – Chuck Clark, DB, Virginia Tech

Clark is an interesting late-round defensive back. He primarily played safety in college, but he has some experience playing cornerback.

At 6-foot, 208 pounds and 4.54 speed, Clark could develop into a reliable nickel corner, who can offer run support in the box and match slot receivers and tight ends in coverage. His lateral movement is excellent (4.07 shuttle), which will aid him shadowing receivers over the middle of the field.

He could immediately contribute on special teams and eventually fulfill the Micah Hyde role on the Packers defense.
