San Diego State's Chris Johnson was noted for his smooth movements and strong testing numbers, including a 4.40 40-yard dash and a 1.54 10-yard split.
Missouri's Toriano Pride led all cornerbacks with a remarkable 4.32 40-yard dash and a top 10-yard split of 1.51. Despite being undersized, Pride's speed makes him a compelling prospect for the Jaguars, mirroring their recent approach to the position.
Duke's Chandler Rivers also emerged as a potential target, possessing explosiveness and dynamic traits despite physical limitations like below-average size and short arm length. His testing results, including a strong 40-yard dash, align with the Jaguars' tendency to consider athletic outliers.
