Cooper DeJean - Cornerback

Cooper DeJean recently suffered a leg injury and wasn't able to play in the Big 10 Conference Championship but he's one of the top corners in the country. He's 6'1" and weighs 207 pounds. He's a bigger corner than most, which would be an asset for the Bills. On a Bills team that already has Rasul Douglas, Dane Jackson, and Christian Benford, the Bills may not see corner has a priority. They will also have Tre'Davious White returning at some point next season; however, I have my concerns about him ever being the same corner he was pre-injuries.

I think one thing we've learned this season though is you can never have too many corners and given the fact that Douglas is only on contract through 2024, I think the Bills could focus on this position. DeJean would be a great selection and should be available in the early 20s of the draft. PFF graded him 75.6 this season and he finished last season with an 88.5 grade. What's more impressive is not only is he great in coverage but he's just as impressive against the run, earning a PFF grade of 78.8 and has missed only five tackles all season.
