NFL teams won’t have pre-draft meetings with draft prospects this year due to COVID-19. In the place of in-person meetings, the Broncos will hold conference calls and video calls with prospects leading up to the draft.
One of the first prospects Denver will have a call with is LSU cornerback Kristian Fulton, according to a report from Draft Wire’s Justin Melo.
Fulton (6-0, 197 pounds) ran a 40-yard dash in 4.46 seconds and ran a 20-yard shuttle in 4.36 seconds at the combine. NFL.com’s Lance Zierlein has compared Fulton to Quincy Wilson, who was a second-round pick in 2017.
During his final two years with the Tigers, Fulton totaled 54 tackles, two interceptions, 20 pass breakups and one forced fumble.
Fulton is the second-best cornerback in this year’s class, according to Draft Wire’s post-combine rankings. Ohio State’s Jeff Okudah is the only cornerback ranked higher than Fulton.
The Broncos will have 10 picks to use in the NFL draft (April 23-25).
