6. Kaiir Elam, CB, Bills

Shockingly enough, 2022 sixth-round pick Christian Benford is listed ahead of Kaiir Elam on the Buffalo Bills' current depth chart. Elam was taken in the first round of the same draft class.

The Bills have Benford and Rasul Douglas penciled in as their starters this year at outside corner with Taron Johnson in the slot. It wouldn't be shocking to see the Packers and Bills come together again on a trade as they did last year for Rasul Douglas, except this time, Green Bay gets the corner.

Elam has a couple of years to figure things out and it would be a worthwhile risk for the Packers to take.

7. Caleb Farley, CB, Titans

On paper, it might not make a lot of sense for the Packers to trade for a near exact copy of Eric Stokes. Caleb Farley was supposed to go a lot higher than he did in the 2021 NFL Draft, but after three years in the NFL, we're seeing why he dropped.

Farley has appeared in just 12 games over the course of his first three NFL seasons, an extremely disappointing number. The Titans went out and traded for L'Jarius Sneed this offseason and they also gave a lot of money to Chidobe Awuzie in free agency. If Caleb Farley is available for a team-friendly price, he might be another worthwhile risk for the Packers to take on a reclamation project.
