Same thing will be true I think for someone like Sanders Commings. We all know the NFL is a copycat league, and teams will be trying to replicate Seattle's big corners.
For the late 3rd and beyond, we're probably looking at someone like Will Shields or Terry Hawthorne. Developmental corners, solid depth, questionable future starters.
Don't now if DJ Hayden will fall to 3rd round or later because teams fears about his terrible injury, but in that case, I will blindly pick him, kid can be down the road the best CB of this draft.
03/28/2013 - 2013 South Florida Pro Day: Kayvon Webster, CB (5'-11", 197 pounds) - The agile cornerback clocked in a 4.17 in the short shuttle run and went 6.89 in the cone drill. He has already taken part in workouts with the New England Patriots and Carolina Panthers, and has one scheduled with the Miami Dolphins. Webster showed off his speed last month at the NFL Scouting Combine with a 4.41 40. - Gil Brandt, NFL.com
7th round flyer could be cornerback Kayvon Webster from South Florida.

The sooner the New England Patriots upgrade cornerback Marquice Cole, the better.
Two UDFAs could be the following:
Mitchell White out of Michigan St. and Marcus Cooper out of Rutgers.
Both have height (5'11 1/8 and 6'2 1/8"). Both have straight line speed. White has good 3-cone and excellent short shuttle numbers. Cooper has excellent short shuttle numbers. BB knows coaches who have coached/played against both players so he should be able to get a good read.
So can Mitchell White..I have my eye on Cooper as well. He can also contribute on ST.
Logan Ryan- my personal favorite. just solid. not the fastest but i can live with that.
Will Davis- a little finesse but feisty. Doesn't fear the deep ball. Deceptively quick.
David Amerson- I think he would be a bust on many teams but not ours. He's big and the way he way he explodes to intercept short routes would work with the way we play bend but don't break. I suspect BB might even like this guy in the first.
Some potential Day 2 CB's that stood out to me, ranking them based upon where they are projected to be drafted...
1. Robert Alford, Southern Louisiana: Pretty good ball skills, nice wingspan, and good speed.
2. Dwayne Gratz, UCONN: Stronger CB that looks to be able to excel in the press. If he gets his hands on a WR, it's going to be hard for that receiver to gain separation.
3. Tyrann Matheiu, LSU: Slower 40 time than hoped for, but he's physical and would be an animal in the "star" role.
4. Leon McFadden, San Diego State: Good cover corner that is better in the press as well. Also would make for a good nickel corner.
5. Terry Hawthorne, Illinois: Big, tall, physical, and speedy corner that saw his stock drop due to a very bad concussion. But, if he falls, he could be a steal.
