Read NFL.com's scouting report of cornerback Cordale Flott, one of the Giants' two third-round picks.
SUMMARY
Flott is the cousin of former Tennessee WR Velus Jones Jr., who is also hoping to be picked in the 2022 NFL Draft. The three-star recruit from Saraland, Alabama, played in 14 games with one start as a true freshman (15 tackles, four pass breakups) for the national champions. He started all 10 games at the nickel spot in 2020 (43 tackles, 4.5 for loss, four pass breakups) and then lined up at cornerback, nickel and safety during the 2021 season because of injuries in the Tigers' secondary (41 tackles, one interception, three pass breakups).
