Former Buff Isaiah Oliver was not one of the fastest 15 defensive backs in the 40-yard dash at the NFL Combine in Indianapolis on Monday. He still had a standout performance, though. When listing his "Cornerback winners" at the combine, CBSSports NFL Draft Writer Chris Trapasso mentioned Oliver first.

"Known mostly for his downfield speed, Oliver gets his hands on plenty of passes -- he had 19 pass breakups and three picks in his final two seasons at Colorado," Trapasso wrote. "His length helps in that area. At just over 6-foot with mammoth 33 1/2-inch arms he's one of the longest cornerbacks in this class. Starting in 1999, only six combine corners measured in with longer arms."

Prior to Monday, multiple draft prognosticators had projected Oliver as a late first-round pick. He is the ninth CU player to declare early for the NFL Draft dating back to 1993 when defensive tackle Lenard Renfro became the first to do so.

Also, Colorado’s Isaiah Oliver running 4.50 at 6’0-2/8”, 201 pounds with 33 1/2” arms is outstanding. Definitely checked the size, speed, and length boxes this week. He’s another one of my RD1 corners. — Chris Trapasso (@ChrisTrapasso) March 5, 2018

The big corners that stood out in the drills: Isaiah Oliver, Quenton Meeks, and Isaac Yiadom.



Thought Carlton Davis and Josh Jackson struggled today. — Jonah Tuls (@JonahTulsNFL) March 5, 2018
