A new NFL draft mock draft has landed the Commanders a top cornerback.
CBS Sports and Pete Prisco have updated his mock draft and published it Tuesday.
After the first 15 selections were made, Prisco had the Commanders address a need that several analysts have projected to be their first-round pick. Prisco had the Commanders choosing to grab Penn State cornerback Joey Porter Jr.
Like Benjamin St-Juste, Porter is long, measuring at 6-foot-3 and weighing 193 pounds. If Porter were to be the choice, he would join St-Juste (third season) and Kendall Fuller (eighth season) as the projected top corners.
Other corners currently on the roster are Christian Holmes (second year), Danny Johnson (sixth season), Rachad Wildgoose (third season), Troy Apke (sixth season), Tariq Castro-Fields (second season), Cameron Dantzler (fourth season), Damarcus Fields (second season).
Four quarterbacks were taken in the top ten of Prisco’s mock draft: 1- C.J. Stroud (Ohio State) to the Panthers, 2- Bryce Young (Alabama) to the Texans, 3- Anthony Richardson (Florida) to the Colts in a trade up from 4, and 7- Will Levis (Kentucky) to the Raiders.
Porter is the third cornerback in this mock draft to be selected: Christian Gonzalez (8th to the Falcons) and Devon Witherspoon (Illinois) went to the Patriots.
