9. Jourdan Lewis, Michigan (5-10, 186) — Film Grade: 79.0

Quick Take: Lewis is feisty defensive back who will probably make a home as a nickel cornerback at the next level due to his size and frame.

Lewis is a flat-out competitor and will give receivers hell all game. He also possesses great hands and a knack for making plays in the secondary. Just watch his pick against Wisconsin this past year for a good example of this.

Despite good cover ability, size concerns will probably keep Lewis out of first round considerations.
