FLORHAM PARK, N.J. – If Von Miller had been making the call at the top of the 2018 draft, there’s no doubt which player the Broncos’ All-Pro pass rusher would have chosen: Sam Darnold.
“I thought he was the best offensive player in the draft,” Miller said Wednesday from the Broncos’ training facility. “He’s a great quarterback. They haven’t been coming up with the wins, but he’s playing really well.”
No disrespect intended toward Baker Mayfield, who went to the Browns with the No. 1 overall pick, but the man who’s paid to chase quarterbacks and does it better than just about anyone else on Earth believes Darnold is the better player.
