Corn Elder, CB, Miami:

Bio

Elder enjoyed a break-out season as a junior for Miami in 2015. Despite starting just seven-of-13 games, Elder finished tied for fifth in the ACC with 12 passes defended.

A four-star athlete, known for his speed and elusiveness, Elder scored the game-winning kickoff return touchdown after a series of eight laterals in the closing seconds of last year win over Duke.

My pre-season thoughts

Listed at just 5'10 and 180 pounds, with just eight career starts, Elder needs to make his senior season count, but he is quick-twitched and athletic enough to make an NFL team, likely as a late-round pick.
