Davison Igbinosun NFL Draft 2026 Scouting Report for Buffalo Bills CB

The Buffalo Bills selected Ohio State CB Davison Igbinosun with the No. 62 overall pick in the 2026 NFL draft.

Davison Igbinosun is a physical force on the outside in coverage and run defense, and one of the most improved defensive backs in the nation.

He still brings the competitive nature to the position, but he's cleaned up the penalties and turned into a shutdown corner. He takes pride in the run game and is as sure a tackler as they come.

The former 4-star recruit and 4-star transfer from Ole Miss tallied 194 tackles (119 solo), four tackles for loss, four interceptions, 27 passes defensed, and three fumble recoveries. One of the most experienced defenders in the Buckeye secondary, Igbinosun is setting the proper example and executing his game at a high level with physicality in every phase.

Where He Wins

— Igbinosun excels in press-man alignment where he can use his physicality to throw off timing and frustrate receivers. His compete level is extremely high.

— He does a great job of getting off blocks while maintaining proper leverage to force ball carriers inside. Then, he finishes plays with good tackling technique.

— He identifies route concepts and quick screens rapidly and triggers downhill with a purpose. His football IQ for passing off routes and staying in phase is noticeable.

— He's improved how quickly he gets his head around to locate the football when it's in the air. Preventing panic mode and allowing him to use his length better at the catch point.

Areas of Improvement

— Igbinosun's feel for off-coverage is inconsistent. He opens his hips too early, allowing receivers an easy path to manipulation.

— His backpedal deceleration transition is segmented and jarring.

— While he's cleaned up the penalties more this season, he's a grabby corner who likes to make contact through the route.

— Lateral agility to cover shiftier receivers is lacking, and he will get beaten across his face.
