2021 BEST CORNERBACKS ON THE BLITZ
Cornerbacks blitz mostly from the slot, and the pass rush grade scores those snaps for pressures, hits and sacks. The sample is small for almost everyone, so treat it as a note on the player’s versatility rather than a ranking that matters on its own. Tyrann Mathieu (LSU) and Minkah Fitzpatrick (Alabama) were the exceptions who blitzed often.
Below, draft-eligible cornerbacks are ranked by pass rush grade, with tackling, run defense, coverage grades and overall rating alongside.
