The Atlanta Falcons moved up six spots and selected former Ohio State CB Kendall Sheffield. In 2018, Sheffield was considered to be the fastest player in college football, allegedly running a 4.32 at Ohio State. Unfortunately, he never got a chance to prove it at the combine, as he suffered a torn pec muscle while attempting the bench press at the combine.

Inconsistent outside cornerback prospect with rare speed and explosiveness, but lacking the ball skills and instincts of an NFL cornerback. Sheffield has the twitch for ball production underneath and the long speed to handle vertical workers, but his inconsistency to find and play the football once it comes out of the quarterback’s hands is problematic.
