“Unveiling the Top Cornerback Gems: Which Prospects Could Revolutionize NFL Pass Coverage?”
While the Noles finished 2-10 with only one FBS victory, Thomas established himself as a serious NFL Draft prospect, allowing a stingy 13.2% big play rate on 34 targets and a best-on-this-list 0.9 burn yards per snap.
7. Maxwell Hairston, Kentucky (47.4%)
Hairston made a breakthrough case at the NFL Scouting Combine. His 4.28-second 40-yard dash made him a buzzy prospect, and he now stands a great chance of being at worst a second-round pick.
Hairstonâs numbers at Kentucky arenât the reason for that status: He found himself getting hit up for big gainers more often than most of his peers on this list, with a 27.2% big play rate allowed and 10.9 burn yards allowed per target. Both of those are the worst among the eight consensus top cornerback prospects.
