Former SMU receiver Courtland Sutton was selected by the Denver Broncos with the No. 40 pick the NFL draft on Friday. Here's a sampling of the national reaction to the selection.
We had a 1st-round grade on SMU WR Courtland Sutton and we're excited to select him at No. 40.
He has tremendous upside as a player and on top of that is a great person. pic.twitter.com/qXiRMGg82A— John Elway (@johnelway) April 27, 2018Like the Courtland Sutton pick. Chad Morris who coached him after he coached at Clemson had told me Sutton is very similar to DeAndre Hopkins with that great body control, ball skills and huge hands.
