The Denver Broncos know what they have in Patrick Surtain II, but he's still got a lot to prove.
's Jeremy Fowler, more than 50% of the NFL people polled listed Surtain as the No. 1 cornerback in the NFL. Fowler also provided some interesting comments from select NFL personnel on the Broncos' cornerback.
"But several evaluators saw slippage in his play in 2023, and his grip on the top spot wasn't overwhelming. Indeed, Surtain's third year wasn't as dominant as his breakout 2022 campaign, where he earned first-team All-Pro and Pro Bowl honors. He did garner the second Pro Bowl nod of his career, but it's fair to wonder how much of that was based on the fumes from his amazing 2022 season and name recognition alone.
In the NFL, though, the buck stops at the individual. Surtain bears the brunt of his — let's face it — average third year.
