Pitt Returns ACC's Best CB Duo
PITTSBURGH -- The Pitt Panthers lost a ton of talent to the NFL Draft this past season, but they can comfortably say they are more than set at cornerback.
According to Pro Football Focus' season grades, the Panthers will return one of the best cornerback duos in the ACC in Marquis Williams and M.J. Devonshire. Pitt is one of just three schools in the league to bring back two corners who ranked in the top 10 of season grades last season and the only team with a pairing that both have grades of 75 or higher.
Virginia Tech and Florida State are the only other teams in the league to return a pair of top-10 graded corners. Williams, who earned an 80.8 overall grade, was the No. 4 cornerback in the ACC last season and Devonshire, with a grade of 77, clocked in at No. 7.
Williams and Devonshire, alongside fellow co-starter A.J. Woods, spearheaded a Pitt pass defense that allowed the 15th-lowest opponent completion percentage while facing the 25th-most passing attempts of any defense in the country.
