2. Ronald Darby, CB – Currently with Philadelphia
Darby is a similar player to Roby. They are roughly the same size and play much more alike than they are different.
Darby is a good cover corner that knows how to knock passes down. He had 21 passes defended in his rookie year and paired that with two interceptions.
Darby has had a bit of bad luck the last two seasons. He dislocated his ankle in week one of 2017 and missed two months.
Although he missed the first two months of the season, he came back strong. He tallied 33 total tackles, three interceptions and nine passes defensed in just eight games upon his return.
He was active for the playoff run and played a part in getting the Eagles the Lombardi. Darby tore his ACL late this season against Dallas and faces a long rehab before camps next season.
Darby’s injuries the last two years will lower his value below Roby, but it is hard to tell by how much. Either guy could help add some solidarity to a secondary in major need of a number two corner.
