Plenty of competition for ACC's top cornerback honors

Who's the best cornerback in the ACC?

No question vexed our ESPN ACC reporters more as we whittled down our 2017 All-ACC team. There were so many good options, and the stats often made a case for more than one player.

Did we value Tarvarus McFadden's FBS-best eight interceptions for Florida State?

Did we focus on Des Lawrence going the entire year without allowing a TD at North Carolina?

Did we prioritize Cordrea Tankersley leading a Clemson secondary that led the ACC in yards/attempt and INTs?

Or would we reward Miami's Corn Elder for his consistency, allowing opponents just 4.
