3 More sub-radar cornerbacks Philadelphia Eagles must consider
The Philadelphia Eagles would be lucky to add this Michigan state corner.
Michigan State cornerback Shakur Brown plays a lot like former Philadelphia Eagles corner Lito Sheppard, with an aggressive nature and terrific ball skills. The Spartan product has the tools to be a true number-one corner at the next level and the potential to be a star.
At five-foot-eleven and 195-pounds, Brown has the size, ball skills, and football IQ to be a complete headache for offenses moving forward. A man that’s capable of being shifted from the outside to playing in the slot, this young man has the versatility that coaches look for in today’s prospects.
The Philadelphia Eagles are in real need of a number-two corner to match up with Darius Slay, and adding Shakur Brown could be the answer they have been looking for. With his game-changing ability, the Michigan State prospect has everything it takes to be a great player for the Birds.
Philly’s front office should keep a close eye on Shakur Brown now and in the 2021 NFL Draft. They will need to find a player like him to be able to compete in the NFC East going forward.
