Cornerbacks to watch for at the NFL Combine

While offensive line is clearly the biggest need for the Cincinnati Bengals, the team cannot overlook the cornerback position.

There are a number of NFL Draft prospects this year who could be in play for the Bengals at the 31st pick and would be well-suited to line up opposite Chidobe Awuzie, The issue lies in Cornerback being the hardest position to predict draft order. Who goes when never seems to line up with what the experts predicted. This is because what teams value at the position varies greatly.

Unfortunately, this doesn’t mean there is a chance that top talent like Sauce Gardner or Derek Stingley will fall clear to the end of the first round without any glaring red flags flying in the next few weeks.
