The NFL Combine 40 times is a big influence of the round where cornerbacks get drafted.
Baker, Mullen, or Murphy would all be good picks for KC.
A CB I did not know about until seeing him in the Senior Bowl is a Topeka kid that played at Washburn University, Corey Ballentine. He won the Cliff Harris Award for best small school defensive player. He is 6-0, 195 and was also a kick returner and has good speed and can mirror wide receivers. If you want to watch him you can watch Senior Bowl practices, Senior Bowl, and there are a lot of Washburn games available to watch. He does make some mistakes but he is a good athlete and can recover from it. I've seen him projected as a 4th round pick which maybe we can get if we end up doing some trades.
