Georgia football 2023 NFL Draft class: CB Kelee Ringo potentially lands with Steelers, Eagles, or Commanders

There is no doubt that Kelee Ringo’s draft stock has continued to rise this year after that sensational 2022 National Championship game. A game that put Ringo’s name on the college football map.

It had NFL scouts sitting up to take notice of the 6’2 corner from Scottsdale Arizona. It is his aggressive attitude and physical attributes that have NFL scouts excited about what he can do in the pro league.

Positionally, cornerback typically gets picked where there is a necessity as opposed to it being a pick as the best option available. Truth is that Ringo’s prototypical physical attributes, speed, and aggressiveness will make him attractive to a number of teams who need to improve their secondary and a landing spot around the middle of the first round is likely.

So (subject to final draft order), Pittsburgh, Washington, or depending on where Philadelphia ends up in the draft order, could all be clamoring for the services of Ringo.
