Noah Igbinoghene

As the Dolphins' third first-round selection in the 2020 NFL Draft, Igbinoghene joins a cornerback room that already looked the part of Miami's best defensive position. Byron Jones and Xavien Howard are the second and third highest-paid cornerbacks in the league, respectively, and locked in as Miami's starters, indicating that the team could envision Igbinoghene beginning his pro career as a depth/developmental option. Alternatively, coach Brian Flores could see hybrid upside for the Auburn product, who boasts the athletic trades desirable of a safety and ultimately only has two years at cornerback under his belt. Neither Bobby McCain nor Eric Rowe boast long histories as every-down starters, so if Igbinoghene were able to garner snaps at safety it could be his quickest path to playing time.
