3. JuJu Brents is an elite athlete in the secondary

JuJu Brents is a protypical cornerback in a Gus Bradley defense. He's got long arms, can jam you at the line of scrimmage and is a ball hawk in the secondary. He's going to be one of the taller corners in the room, standing at 6-foot-3 while some of the players we know and love stand under 6'. Brents is going to be able to cover some of the bigger names in the league with his height and size.

Adding a player that is so physical and not afraid to make a hit that can play both safety and corner is going to add a lot of versatility in the Colts secondary that struggled so much last year.

Not to mention, Brents has the longest wing span in the draft. That, paired with his height will make it very hard to go over the top against him. Imagine the amount of interceptions and pass breakups that he will be able to make even if he does get beat by the receiver.
