Giants selected Oklahoma State CB Korie Black with the No. 246 overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft.
A steady five-year contributor and three-year starter in Stillwater, Black brings ideal size (6’0”, 192) and legit speed (4.35 forty) to the outside cornerback spot. His 8.42 RAS is headlined by elite vertical (39”) and speed scores, showcasing his potential as a man-zone hybrid corner with closing burst. Black posted career highs as a senior—3 INTs, 9 PBUs—and was one of the few bright spots on a porous Oklahoma State defense. He plays with eye balance and flashes route anticipation, but his recovery agility (4.34 shuttle, 7.01 3-cone) is only average, making him vulnerable to sharp route breaks. Black can get grabby when beat and is late to locate the ball at times, but he’s physical, competitive, and experienced in multiple coverages. He also brings special teams value as a former gunner. Black comes with CB4 potential and developmental starter tools in press or Cover 3 schemes.
