Making a case for Devon Witherspoon at 16 over Joey Porter Jr. and Deonte Banks

When it comes to the cornerback discussion for the Washington Commanders, there have been several names mentioned by analysts and fans that Washington should select with their first pick. Oregon’s Christian Gonzalez has been the least said, as he is presumably the first cornerback off of the board. However, Illinois’s Devon Witherspoon, Maryland’s Deonte Banks, and Penn State’s Joey Porter Jr. have been the most mentioned and linked to Washington.

What if Washington had an opportunity to grab any of the three when they were on the clock? Who should Washington select over the other two?

Keith Sanchez, Senior Draft Analyst for The Draft Network, believes Witherspoon should be the selection.
