Washington CB Byron Murphy could help solidify the Giants’ secondary

The top of the depth chart for the 2019 cornerback class is a murky one.

Depending on what defense a team runs or traits they favor, they could name any one of three or four corners as the “CB1” of this class. And while that might speak to the depth of talent at the position, the problem is that none of these players run away with the title of “best corner”, and there are far more players who are intriguing than truly impressive.

Washington’s Byron Murphy might have the most well-rounded game of the corners in this draft class, boasting easy change of direction ability, the ability to cover in man and zone, and quality ball skills.
