LOS ANGELES -- The Los Angeles Rams now have what appears to be a desperate need at cornerback, but their timing seems right.
The 2018 draft can provide a major lift.
One of the major strengths of this upcoming draft -- taking place from April 26-28 at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas -- comes in the secondary, especially with regard to first-round talent. Mel Kiper Jr.'s latest Big Board listed five defensive backs among its top 25 draft prospects, tied with offensive linemen for the most at any position. Todd McShay's latest Top 32 identified six defensive backs, tied with defensive and offensive linemen for the highest representation.
