2023 NFL draft big board: Cornerbacks

Ranking the prospects in a very good cornerback class in the 2023 NFL draft

Up next in the 2023 NFL positional big boards is the cornerback group.

As was the case with the running backs, different corners will have stronger appeal for some teams but less for other schemes. As an example, Devon Witherspoon will rank much higher for press-man coverage defenses but won’t have nearly as high of a ranking for zone-heavy schemes. These are broader rankings based on overall ability; adjust for scheme accordingly.
