It's the best way to land an elite CB when you're picking outside the top 5/10, other than a trade.

I'm still not pleased with us continually waiting so late in the draft (or not at all) to draft a corner, but at least we added some promising bodies at the position. With expanded rosters this year perhaps we can carry 6 corners on the roster. Between Sneed and Keyes in the draft and Davis and Hill in UDFA I think we added some good competition for the bottom 2-3 roster spots at cornerback, and hopefully we can sneak some of those that don't make the cut on the practice squad. Give them a year to hopefully develop and improve behind Ward/Breeland/Fenton and hopefully 1-2 of them step up to some degree. How much they step up will determine whether corner is a day 1 or a day 2-3 need again next year.
