The question I have is, would Derwin be a complete lock with Packers? Probably not.

But the Packers (at least as of right now), don't seem to be as interested in using their safeties is multiple roles.

Just gonna do some comparisons, since I can't easily cross teams, just gonna use some PFF scores and rankings. And remember Packers scores could change a bit after the Rams and Patriots offenses come to town. (and yes these is a tie, that's not a typo)

Starters
Grade / Position Ranking
87.7 #2 Haha Clinton-Dix
76.7 #16 Micah Hyde
76.7 #16 Damarious Randall
74.6 U/R Morgan Burnett (injured, not enough snaps to rank)
54.1 #74 Kentrell Brice

Back-up
71.2 #30 Jermaine Whitehead (back-up)
Brice has played 380 defensive snaps (99.7% of them) while Whitehead has only played 131 (34.4%), keeping him fresh and maybe harder to target so I don't put him with the others.

Just interesting, how we had two pretty good Safeties at CB... and now don't have enough Safeties. Though maybe they didn't realize they were gonna let Burnett walk at the time when they let Hyde go and we don't completely know Randall's locker room behavior and the vets reportedly asked the coaches to cut him mid-season.
