What does Patrick Surtain II bring to the Broncos?
I reached out to
Did the Broncos draft the next Champ Bailey when they acquired Patrick Surtain II?
It may seem far-fetched in the early days of his career, but there’s a definite possibility George Paton’s first draft pick has a similar impact for the secondary as Von Miller’s had for the front seven. With his combination of athleticism, instincts and technique, the Alabama corner could quickly become a dominant boundary defender. He was born for this.
To get a little more insight on the Broncos’ first round draft pick, I reached out to Parker Simmons, who had the pleasure of watching Surtain go from the best corner recruit in the 2018 class to the best defensive player in the 2021 NFL Draft. A Broncos and Bama fan, Simmons gave us the lowdown on Jerry Jeudy around this time last year.
