jenkins is not a corner b/c he is not fast enough. pp does not have that issue. also excellent hip flexibility and the ability to jam up at the line.

a shutdown corner is more valuable than any position on defense. outside of the qbs who will be picked in the top 5, pp could be the first non-qb selected. it all depends on the team need.

aj green is as talented as pp in his respective position, but i do agree that a corner is more valuable. the draft order will be determined by a team's need so it really doesn't matter what kiper's board looks like.

The most valuable positions in the draft are:

franchise QB
left tackle
pass rusher
lockdown corner

That has been the trend teams have been drafting. Corners don't get picked up in top 5 as much b/c they are a bigger gamble than the other positions.
