Who’s Penn State’s best-ever DB? Voted No. 1 overall, he was no one’s top pick

We're now on Day 3 of our summer series covering Penn State's storied history.

After running backs and defensive tackles were ranked, it's time to figure out the top defensive backs in the Nittany Lions' 130-plus seasons of competition. The secondary was the biggest source of contention out of all our position groups, and you'll soon see why.

As a reminder, we organized a group of 12 experts — six former players, six media members — to vote on the top-10 all-time players at each position. Each day we'll release a new position, and if you think we missed something, you can vote in our fan poll, which will be released on July 22.
