There’s no harm in having an abundance of cornerbacks in the passing-orientated NFL, but is it a direction the Detroit Lions should go with the second-overall pick?
The Lions’ cornerback group has more questions than answers. Jeff Okudah, the former third-overall selection in 2020, has not lived up to his billing and an Achilles injury only further derails his career trajectory. Amani Oruwariye stepped into the CB1 role in 2021 to modest success. Oruwariye led the way with six interceptions, but as a pending free agent in 2023, his future with the team is up in the air.
