Eagles young cornerbacks shouldn't be overlooked (but they are)

The 2024 Philadelphia Eagles' defense was the best in the NFL in total defense and passing defense. It has a lot to do with what Eagles general manager Howie Roseman did before the season. Roseman went to the NFL Draft and selected the two best cornerbacks in the class: Quinyon Mitchell and Cooper DeJean. Mitchell and DeJean dominated as they were the best rookie corners in the NFL as Mitchell showed elite shutdown corner traits while DeJean was preventing receptions in the slot. They both became heroes in the postseason as Mitchell nabbed two interceptions and DeJean got the critical pick-six in the Super Bowl against the Kansas City Chiefs to turn the momentum completely over to Philadelphia. One year's work may not be enough for everyone to see the potential greatness in those players right now, but Eagles fans know all too well how good they are. Bleacher Report understands it too, but might be sleeping on them a little too much. Bleacher Report writer Moe Moton ranked the best cornerback duos in the NFL
