In a position that struggled in 2019, there were some cornerbacks that showed some promise for the Broncos. We grade their performance.
The 2020 free agent signing period has begun and the Denver Broncos are on the way to improving the team. One of the big needs remaining is at the cornerback position. Chris Harris Jr., the last remaining member of the vaunted No Fly Zone, has moved on to the Los Angeles Chargers.
This group was led by Chris Harris Jr., who ended up holding out in order to get a richer one year deal from the Broncos in 2019. Sadly, he did not perform as well as the contract indicated. But more on that later.
For the majority of the 2019 season, we saw a lot of young talent at the position. Perhaps those players can help out and make an impact for the team beyond the upcoming season.
The team did end up trading for Jacksonville Jaguars cornerback A.J. Bouye. He is a definite improvement at the position. But the team will be looking for a player that can compliment him.
In the meantime, let us take a look at the grades for the Broncos players who suited up as cornerbacks in 2019.
