The Denver Broncos decide to dip back in the field of cornerbacks again. They very well could double up in the cornerback pool like they did wide receiver in 2020. All in all, Denver would be smart to take multiple corners in this draft.

The cornerback position is rich this season with a lot of potential strong developmental players. Parnell Motley was a decent find for the Broncos and can be a diamond in the rough. However, it should not preclude Denver to select another guy to further depth.

Camryn Bynum is a physical, productive corner. Bynum does not have elite top speed. Some faster wide receivers will give him some trouble but Farley is fast, strong to keep up with someone like that. Bynum will add value to special teams with his instincts and physicality. Both traits will help him down the line.

These traits paired with his sound tackling would make for enough to take a chance on. One area that’s made Champ Bailey so famous was his willingness to mix it up as a run defender. If Bynum can work on the other areas of his game, then Denver might have found something here.

It does not change where the Denver Broncos would stand on guys like Essang Bassey, Parnell Motley, and others. Bynum adds exceptional value in his run defense as a tackler.
