Several of the top cornerback prospects impressed at the combine on Tuesday, including Xavier Rhodes and Dee Milliner.
After running through the combine drills, the top two cornerback prospects in the 2013 NFL Draft have solidified their positions as the leaders of the pack.
Alabama's Dee Milliner answered any questions there might have been about his speed with the second fastest 40-yard dash time of any corner at 4.37 seconds and locked himself into the top 10.
Florida State's Xavier Rhodes impressed in the vertical jump, leading all corners at 40.5 inches. Rhodes also posted the best broad jump numbers at the position, with a jump of 11 feet.
While the top two cornerbacks helped themselves on Tuesday, the third-ranked prospect coming in, Mississippi State's Johnthan Banks, hurt his stock with a 4.61 second 40-yard dash. Banks teammate, Darius Slay, ran the fastest 40, with a time of 4.36 seconds.
LSU's Tyrann Mathieu exceeded expectations in his drills, running the 40 in 4.50 seconds and turning in top-10 times in the 20 yard shuttle and 3 cone drill.
