Well lets see, this last pro bowl alone featured Charles Tillman and Brandon Browner. Tillman's fastest time I could find was 4.49 although some sites said 4.53 and Browner was clocked at 4.63 but whatever, maybe we can grab Morris Claiborne in one of the later rounds.

I do think that bigger CBs can somewhat offset being slower due to their size. Especially in press coverage. Brandon Browner is 6-4, 221 and plays overly physical to compensate for lack of speed.

Seahawks RCB Brandon Browner leads the NFL in pass interference penalties this season. Browner, a Pro Bowl alternate, has been flagged six times for pass interference, three times for illegal contact, and four times for defensive holding. While Browner's stiff-hipped game has resulted in a high number of penalties, the Seahawks primarily use press coverage on defense, which benefits his physical style of play. A former CFL standout, Browner is tied for fourth in the NFL with six interceptions

Both those teams play a ton of 2 deep zone. A slower corner can thrive in that system like Ty Law.
