Traits That Make a CB Prospect Great
To be an elite cornerback, you need to be able to run backwards as fast as the best receivers can run forwards. You need elite stop and star ability, great length to break up passes, along with the ability to tackle. Understandably, cornerback is heavily reliant on physical traits. Length, quickness, and speed are among some of the most important factors of scouting the top cornerback prospects.
Some of the factors we consider when scouting are included below.
Fluidity
Fluidity and flexibility, particularly in the hips, is a can’t miss trait for a corner. The ability to turn and run and defend like a basketball player in a standard part of most pass coverage routes. A corner also needs a smooth backpedal and elite start-stop ability. Fluidity can’t really be coached, but it’s needed to match up with the elite athletes at wide receiver.
Length
Length is another uncoachable trait that allows a corner to disrupt at the catch point and break off passes. Corners with short arms rarely get drafted because they have a much smaller margin or error in coverage and have to get closer to a receiver to jam them at the line of scrimmage.
Quickness & Speed
For other position I’ve separated out these two traits, but they’re both vital when determining cornerback draft rankings. Having quick feet underneath with help you stay in good position and effectively mirror your receiver. Speed is also necessary to turn and run on a deep route, helping with recovery and reducing the need for safety help.
Coverage Technique
Athletic traits are necessary, but a cornerback will need some fine tuned technique to succeed in the NFL. Maintaining tight coverage, staying in phase during man or press man coverage, and being aggressive without getting penalties are just a few aspects of good coverage corners.
Overall Opinion of the 2025 CB Draft Class
There have been some good cornerback classes recently, and 2025 is no exception. There might not be quite as much day 2 talent as normal, but everywhere else is extremely strong.
