New England Patriots: Assessing The Cornerbacks
When the New England Patriots parted ways with their top three cornerbacks (Darrelle Revis, Brandon Browner, Kyle Arrington) after the 2014 season, everyone freaked out about the status of New England’s secondary. However, thanks to breakout campaigns from Logan Ryan and Malcolm Butler, the Patriots now have one of the better cornerback groups in the NFL.
As it sits right now, Butler is the Pats top guy, followed by Ryan as the two. Then it gets a little tricky, as Justin Coleman was their best slot corner last season, but they also drafted Cyrus Jones in the second round, and they will get talented youngster Darryl Roberts back after spending the 2015 season on the injured reserve.
