Top defensive grades:
DT Gerald Willis, 78.3
DE Chad Thomas, 77.2
CB Corn Elder, 76.6
LB Shaquille Quarterman, 75.6
Nice write up on Corn, too:
Corn yield low in 2016
The Hurricanes have a long history of producing top corners. Corn Elder is next up on the conveyor belt. He allowed only one completion on two targets for ten yards with a pass deflection against FSU. The Canes’ top corner has great speed and athleticism, as well as the mental traits required of an elite corner. He was able to knock down a 20-yard corner route from a two-yard deep alignment, recognizing the concept from the flat in cover-2. Few defensive backs would even have processed the concept, let alone possessed the speed necessary to make the play. Incredibly, he also matched Dalvin Cook stride-for-stride in the open field, preventing a touchdown. Elder has the instincts and athleticism to dominate in 2016.
IMO Corn is playing like a top 3 CB in the ACC and one of the best in the country. He has a chance to keep his draft stock soaring with match ups against Trubinksy (Switzer), Evans (Ford) and Kizer (St. Brown). Not positive that we'll have Corn shadow St. Brown because of his size, but i think its safe to say he will be matched up against the two other receivers.
