The Denver Broncos made DeMarcus Walker their second round pick in the 2017 NFL Draft after an amazing career at Florida State, where he was one of the most productive defensive linemen in the country.
Walker’s ability to play all over the line and explode into the backfield to disrupt plays helped him fill up the stat sheet with tackles, tackles for loss, sacks, and forced fumbles. But even considering his phenomenal production, it’s more than just Walker’s statistics in college that make him a great fit for this team, and this defense specifically.
Teammate Zach Kerr, a free agent acquisition from the Indianapolis Colts, spoke about Walker at OTAs, and his first impressions of the rookie.
