What this is: Our take on preseason all-Big Ten lists, drafting position-by-position.
Previously: Quarterbacks and Running Backs, Receivers and Tight Ends, Offensive Line, Defensive Line
How things stand:
We're skipping past LBs because we're going to do a four-guy LBs/FLEX round afterwards. And the draft is randomized again.
======CORNERBACKS======
CB #1: Lavert Hill, Michigan (Ace)
One of the best corners in the country two seasons ago. One of the best corners in the country last year, again, and among the leaders in the conference at pretty much any fancystat. A press man specialist who can line up on the outside or in the slot, the latter an increasingly important factor in today’s game—his ability to nerf Penn State’s slot fades helped turn that series around dramatically last year. Has significant NFL Draft interest despite non-ideal NFL size—Kiper has him as the #5 senior corner and a potential riser.
You know all this, but it’s nice to hear again.
[After THE JUMP: Lots of nickels drafted to safety, and we make up a new cornerback stat]
