Philadelphia logged a league-high 77 sacks in 2022, and most of that success can be attributed to having two All-Pros at the cornerback position.
The Birds are stacked at the position, with Avonte Maddox being one of football’s top slot/nickel cornerbacks.
With NFL training camps fast approaching, positional and individual rankings are starting to develop, and Philadelphia will be at the top of many.
ESPN recently ranked all 32 cornerback units and depth charts, and the Eagles landed at No. 3 in Mike Clay’s high-powered list.
