#118 Overall, Tre'Davious White, Los Angeles Rams, #10 Cornerback
2023 Pre-Season Rank #110, 2022 Pre-Season Rank #113, 2021 Pre-Season Rank #108, 2020 Pre-Season Rank #129. Peak Period 2017-21
White was electric in 2019 and 2020, but while Buffalo went to the next level in the two years after, White did not, as injuries compiled and he only played 21 Games in the last three years. The Cornerback will look to be healthy and productive in 2024 with his new team, the Los Angeles Rams.
#58 Overall, Darius Slay, Philadelphia Eagles, #4 Cornerback
2023 Pre-Season Rank #70, 2022 Pre-Season Rank #101, 2021 Pre-Season Rank #125, 2020 Pre-Season Rank #125. Peak Period: 2017-21
The last three seasons of Darius Slay’s career in Detroit were phenomenal (2017-19), but they came after three average years and a rookie year in which he only played four Games. Slay joined the Philadelphia Eagles in 2020, where he looked for a shot at the Super Bowl. While he did play in one, “Big Play Slay” hasn’t won the ring yet.
Nevertheless, Slay's second three-year Pro Bowl streak is ongoing, and still a top contender.
#20 Overall, Jalen Ramsey, Miami Dolphins, #2 Cornerback
2023 Pre-Season Rank #23, 2022 Pre-Season Rank #35, 2021 Pre-Season Rank #54, 2020 Pre-Season Rank #73.
The Rams believed that Jalen Ramsey was the best Cornerback in the NFL, and they went all in to get him during the 2019 season when he was disgruntled in Jacksonville. Ramsey was the top CB in 2020, adding a second First Team All-Pro, a fourth Pro Bowl, and posting a career-high in Approximate Value (15). Currently, over the AV/G, Ramsey added another Pro Bowl, First Team All-Pro, and, more importantly, a Super Bowl in 2021, proving the Rams right. Ramsey added a sixth Pro Bowl in 2022 and a seventh with his third team in Miami, which was impressive considering he only played ten games last year.
A seven-time Pro Bowl Corner will be challenging to keep out of Canton.
#63 Overall, Marcus Peters, Free Agent, #5 Cornerback
2023 Pre-Season Rank #52, 2022 Pre-Season Rank #60, 2021 Pre-Season Rank #56, 2020 Pre-Season Rank #57. Peak Period: 2015-19.
Missing the entire 2021 Season with a torn ACL, Marcus Peters had a decent 2022 in Baltimore, but it was in the shadow of his past glory. A three-time leader in Interception Return Yards and former Defensive Rookie of the Year, Peters flamed out badly in Las Vegas and is not the player he used to be. It was a quick fall for a player once in the Top Cornerback in the NFL conversation.
