When the New York Giants drafted cornerback Corey Ballentine in the sixth round of this year’s draft out of Washburn University, not many knew who he was. What kind of player is this guy? Does he have a chance to make the team? What can he truly bring to the table?
Well, just a few short months later, Ballentine is competing every single day for Big Blue and has found himself near the top of the depth chart. Janoris Jenkins, DeAndre Baker, and himself seem to be the team’s top three guys for the split wide corner position.
