Summary
If you are going to take a corner in the first round who didn’t play at all the season prior, his tape better look like McCoy’s sophomore tape in 2024. He was the best corner in college football that season, with lockdown tape against the best in the SEC. Between his high-end athleticism and exceptional ball skills, McCoy has everything you could want to be a top-flight man corner in the NFL -- except junior tape.

Raiders' Jermod McCoy: Snared by Raiders
The Raiders selected McCoy in the fourth round of the 2026 NFL Draft, 101st overall.
McCoy started for just one season at Tennessee, and it wasn't even the most recent of collegiate seasons, as he missed all of 2025 due to an ACL injury suffered before the start of the campaign. However, he showed enough on tape in 2024, finishing that season with 44 tackles (26 solo), six pass deflections and four interceptions, and posted solid measurables at his Tennessee Pro Day to warrant a fourth-round selection. At 6-foot, 192 pounds, he'll slot in on the outside for the Raiders, joining a group manned by returnees Eric Stokes -- who signed a three-year extension this offseason -- and 2025 third-round pick Darien Porter.

Jermod McCoy: New concerns about knee
Doctors have some concern that McCoy may eventually need surgery to replace a bone plug that was used to repair a cartilage defect in his knee, Tom Pelissero and Ian Rapoport of NFL Network report.
McCoy is considered one of the top cornerbacks available in the upcoming draft and widely viewed as a first-round talent despite missing all of last season following surgery for an ACL tear. Pelissero and Rapoport indicate that McCoy's repaired ACL is fine but that a bone plug in the same knee may need to eventually be replaced via surgery, which would require "an extensive recovery." It remains to be seen how far -- if at all -- McCoy's draft stock will slip due to the concern, as teams who have interest in the Tennessee product will need to weigh the risk of drafting a player with a potential long-term knee issue versus the reward of securing a potential shutdown defender.
