FSU football has put its share of defensive backs in the NFL. There are former Noles littered across the league with multiple players making Pro Bowls recently.
Jalen Ramsey, Xavier Rhodes, Derwin James and Lamarcus Joyner just to name a few who have signed contracts worth millions of dollars.
However, none of those former players could help the ‘Noles secondary last season who gave up a record 30 passing touchdowns and over 3,200 passing yards.
It was a rough season for Harlon Barnett in his first year as defensive coordinator. A former NFL defensive back himself, he couldn’t be happy with that unit’s performance last season.
