In his latest 2020 NFL mock draft for Touchdown Wire, Mark Schofield has the Denver Broncos selecting LSU cornerback Kristian Fulton with the 15th overall pick in the first round.
In Touchdown Wire’s mock, top wide receivers CeeDee Lamb (No. 11; New York Jets), Jerry Jeudy (No. 12; Las Vegas Raiders) and Henry Ruggs (No. 13; San Francisco 49ers) are all selected before Denver goes on the clock.
Here is part of Schofield’s commentary with the Broncos’ pick:
The Broncos lost Chris Harris Jr. in free agency to the Los Angeles Chargers, and even though they acquired A.J. Bouye from the Jacksonville Jaguars, cornerback is another area they could address at this spot. With Jeff Okudah off the board, they turn to Kristian Fulton, the talented cornerback from the defending national champions.
Fulton (6-0, 197 pounds) is the second-best cornerback in this year’s class behind Okudah, according to Draft Wire’s post-combine rankings. Denver has already scheduled a pre-draft conference call with Fulton.
