The top cornerbacks in the 2024 NFL draft had to be patient during Thursday's opening round, as nobody from the position was selected until the Philadelphia Eagles chose Toledo's Quinyon Mitchell at No. 22 overall.
He was the first of three cornerbacks taken with Alabama's Terrion Arnold and Clemson's Nate Wiggins going to the Detroit Lions and Baltimore Ravens at Nos. 24 and 30, respectively.
Fortunately for teams looking for depth at cornerback, there are still multiple high-end prospects available at the position.
Iowa's Cooper DeJean and Alabama's Kool-Aid McKinstry certainly fit the bill and could hear their names called during Friday's second round.
