Where the group stands

The 2027 draft has not been held, so nothing here is a result. What this page shows is where 72 cornerbacks currently sit on the consensus board, and the range of outcomes the public boards support for each.

Leonard Moore of Notre Dame leads the group at No. 2 overall, currently projected somewhere between 1 and 11.

5 cornerbacks are currently projected inside the first round. Treat all of it as a starting map rather than a finished ranking: early boards move more than they look like they will, and the projected order they sit against does not yet include compensatory picks.
