Unveiling the NFL Draft’s Most Unstoppable Cornerbacks: Who Will Lock Down the Pass Game?
Where does burn rate tell an honest story about how good a cornerback was in college, and where do we need a lot more information?

1. Jahdae Barron, Texas (35.5% burn rate allowed)Â
Barron passes both the eye test and the Opta Analyst data test for a starting cornerback at the next level.
At Vanderbilt last season, he thumped his way through a game against the Commodores, closing quickly on passes in his direction and laying his body on whichever black jerseys he could find. It epitomized how none of the top cornerbacks in the draft class got burned less often than Barron in 2024.
