ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- As is often the case with cornerbacks taken after the second round, special teams represents the first area in which No. 99 overall pick Isaac Yiadom can make an on-field impact.
"He’s really long and can run, and really does a nice job on the deep balls. He’s physical and we think he’ll be a really good special-teams player," President of Football Operations/General Manager John Elway said.
Yiadom's size and length -- a 6-foot-1 inch frame with a 75 3/4-inch wingspan -- allowed him to win more than his share of one-on-one matchups during Senior Bowl week, when he played for the North team coached by Denver's staff.
