The best mid-round cornerback draft targets for the New York Giants

New York Giants Draft Target: Coby Bryant
Cincinnati had a ridiculous secondary last season led by Ahmad Gardner, but Coby Bryant made quite the impact despite being overshadowed by Gardner. He has nine career interceptions with 170 tackles and has been one of the more impressive athletes of the draft.
Bryant has great footwork and speed and will be able to make an impact everywhere on the field.
He has also been a good run-stuffing corner for the Bearcats but will need to be a bit more physical at the NFL level.
As one of the veterans in that Cincinnati secondary, he has been one of the more intellectual players in this draft. He can understand route concepts that will make him a very coachable player at the NFL level.
Bryant has a 6’1, 191 frame with decent length, and in the right situation, that frame will be able to be used to his advantage. He has had the work ethic of his namesake, and if the Giants can get him in the third or fourth round, that hardworking mentality will work in favor of New York
