Call it what you will, Broncos hope Su'a Cravens can do what's needed

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- In trading for Su'a Cravens">Su'a Cravens the Denver Broncos added a safety who hasn’t played a regular-season game since December of 2016 and who plays a position where both of the team's starters are still on the depth chart.

In fact Cravens says his best position is strong safety, where Justin Simmons happens to play for the Broncos. Though the Broncos consider their safeties interchangeable in the base defense, the bottom line is Simmons is simply one of the team’s best emerging players.

At the other spot is Pro-Bowl safety Darian Stewart, who has missed just one regular-season game in the past three seasons.
