1. DeMarcus Milliner*, CB, Alabama Height: 6-1. Weight: 182. Projected 40 Time: 4.45. Projected Round (2013): Top 20. 10/13/12: Milliner had a great game against Ole Miss with an interception, half of a sack and four passes broken up. He had two tackles and a pass broken up versus Arkansas a couple weeks earlier. The junior almost had an interception with a long return, but it was ruled that he had trapped the ball.

Milliner was dominant against Michigan in Week 1. He broke up four passes, had five tackles and returned an interception 35 yards. Milliner's one mistake came when he lost his footing and fell down in man coverage. That allowed his receiver to get wide open for a score.

Milliner is tied for fourth in the nation with passes defensed with nine. He has 14 tackles and nine interceptions. Milliner is probably the best man-to-man cover corner prospect for the 2013 NFL Draft, and, as a result, he is rated at the top of his position.

3. Johnthan Banks, CB, Mississippi State Height: 6-2. Weight: 185. Projected 40 Time: 4.44. Projected Round (2013): 1. 10/13/12: Banks has totaled 19 tackles, three interceptions and two passes broken up so far in 2012. He has been playing really good football for Mississippi State this season.

Banks had an excellent game against Auburn with two interceptions. They came in the second quarter and helped the Bulldogs pull away from Tigers in a nice win for the Mississippi State program.

4. David Amerson*, CB, North Carolina State Height: 6-3. Weight: 194. Projected 40 Time: 4.46. Projected Round (2013): 1. 10/13/12: Amerson had a rough first week of the season as he was beaten for a 41-yard touchdown and a 72-yard touchdown by Tennessee's dangerous passing attack. He recovered from those two early mistakes and played better for the rest of the game.

Amerson had an ugly performance versus Miami as he was beaten for two touchdowns in man coverage. He had interceptions in three straight games against the Citadel, South Alabama and Connecticut. Amerson has totaled 24 tackles, three interceptions and two passes broken up in 2012. His stock is falling.

12. Tyrann Mathieu*, CB/S, LSU Height: 5-9. Weight: 175. Projected 40 Time: 4.42. Projected Round (2013): 2-4. 10/13/12: Mathieu is sitting out football this season. LSU kicked him off the team, and he decided to check into a rehab facility for substance abuse issues rather than transferring down a level to play this season. Mathieu may seek to return to LSU for the 2013 season.
