Philadelphia Eagles draft watch: 3 ACC corners not named Farley or Surtain

So, here are the Philadelphia Eagles options in terms of ACC cornerbacks.

Seeing as how you’ve probably already been inundated with so much NFL Draft talk that it would make your head spin, it could be relatively easy to forget that it’s only March. It feels like we’ve been talking about prospects and mocks for months now. Then, if you’re a Philadelphia Eagles fan, you could probably talk about conspiracy theories in your sleep.

You’ve argued every possibility at six so many times if you’re a Birds fan. Philly could trade back and stack more picks. They can take a quarterback if they don’t believe in Jalen Hurts. They could add a tackle if they want to protect Hurts. They could draft a wide receiver if they want to give Hurts a weapon on the outside.

There are also other theories. Why not go with a defensive prospect? Micah Parsons is attractive if the Birds want to add a linebacker. The same can be said about Patrick Surtain II if Philly goes with a cornerback, and that latter name makes a ton of sense because this year’s class of cover guys isn’t as deep as the pool of wide receiver talent that will be entering the 2021 selection meeting.

Philly needs a cover guy. After Surtain, Caleb Farley might be seen as the second-best on the list. We know about all of the talented prospects in the south, especially in the SEC, but what about the ACC? Might there be other options?

There’s no time to investigate like the present. Here are the three best cover guys from the Atlantic Coast Conference once both Surtain and Farley are off of the draft board.
