1. D.J. Reed, CB, Jets. Age: 28.
Signed with Lions (3 years, $48 million)

D.J. Reed is a very talented cornerback, who is coming off a bit of a down season. He should rebound with a real defensive coordinator.

2. Nate Hobbs, CB, Raiders. Age: 26.
Signed with Packers (4 years, $48 million)

Nate Hobbs is an excellent slot cornerback. He’s also just 26 despite seemingly being in the NFL for an eternity.

3. Byron Murphy, CB, Vikings. Age: 27.
Re-signed with Vikings (3 years, $66 million)

Byron Murphy is coming off a great year. He’s only 27, so he should continue to perform at a high level.

4. Mike Hilton, CB, Bengals. Age: 31.

Mike Hilton has been one of the better slot cornerbacks in the NFL, but he could decline soon now that he’s 31.

5. Carlton Davis, CB, Lions. Age: 28.
Signed with Patriots (3 years, $60 million)

Carlton Davis revived his career in Detroit with a great 2024 season. He was missed late in the year when he fractured his jaw.

6. Charvarius Ward, CB, 49ers. Age: 30.
Signed with Colts (3 years, $60 million)

Charvarius Ward is a talented cornerback, but is coming off a down year where he dealt with injuries. He could recover, but at 30, he could be in for some regression.

7. Chidobe Awuzie, CB, Titans. Age: 30.
Signed with Ravens

Chidobe Awuzie is an excellent cornerback, but he’s now 30 and is coming off a season in which he missed half the games with an injury.

8. Michael Jackson, CB, Panthers. Age: 28.
Re-signed with Panthers (2 years)

Michael Jackson has been a solid cornerback for the Seahawks and Panthers the past two years.

9. Asante Samuel Jr., CB, Chargers. Age: 25.

Asante Samuel Jr. missed most of 2024 with an odd shoulder injury. He’s been a disappointment with the Chargers outside of 2023.

10. Shaq Griffin, CB, Vikings. Age: 30.

Shaq Griffin has been inconsistent throughout his career. He’s had some great moments, but at 30, those might be coming to an end.

11. Rasul Douglas, CB, Bills. Age: 31.

Rasul Douglas had three amazing years from 2021 to 2023. He’s coming off a down season. At 31, he could be in decline.

12. Kendall Fuller, CB, Dolphins. Age: 30.

Kendall Fuller just had the worst season of his career, but dealt with multiple injuries. He turned 30 this offseason, but he could have one or two more strong years remaining.

13. Jonathan Jones, CB, Patriots. Age: 31.
Signed with Redskins (1 year)

Jonathan Jones has seen better days. He struggled to cover last year at the age of 31.

14. Donte Jackson, CB, Steelers. Age: 29.

Donte Jackson is coming off a down year in his first season with the Steelers.

15. Kristian Fulton, CB, Chargers. Age: 27.

Kristian Fulton has been inconsistent throughout his career. He’s coming off his best season.

16. Eric Stokes, CB, Packers. Age: 26.
Signed with Raiders (1 year, $4 million)

Eric Stokes has been a disappointment as a former first-round pick, but he’s still young and has potential. He had some nice moments last year mixed in with some horrible ones.

17. Stephon Gilmore, CB, Vikings. Age: 34.

Stephon Gilmore had a mediocre season. At 34, his time is nearly up.

18. Darius Slay, CB, Eagles. Age: 34.
Signed with Steelers (1 year, $10 million)

Darius Slay said he’ll play one more year. His skills have diminished now that he’s 34, but he can still be a decent starter.

19. Dee Alford, CB, Falcons. Age: 27.

Dee Alford had a solid season as Atlanta’s slot corner in 2023, but regressed last year.

20. Mike Hughes, CB, Falcons. Age: 28.

21. Jourdan Lewis, CB, Cowboys. Age: 30.
Signed with Jaguars

Jourdan Lewis is coming off his best season as a pro, but it’s not clear how long his high level of play will last, given that he turns 30 this offseason.

Signed with Giants

Paulson Adebo played well last year until breaking his leg in Week 7.

23. Adoree Jackson, CB, Giants. Age: 29.
