NFL Draft: Tyler Forness’ top 13 cornerbacks

The 2023 NFL draft class is an interesting one, but the best position group is at cornerback. This class is deep and extremely talented throughout and you can get a starter in the fourth round.

When you look at this class, the value proposition the class provides an interesting conundrum. The Minnesota Vikings need cornerbacks but do they need them badly enough to take one in the first round? That is going to be an interesting development come draft day.

Here are my top 13 cornerbacks in the 2023 NFL draft class.
