16 players the Ravens will try to get before the NFL trade deadline
16. Pat Surtain II (CB) Broncos
This would have been labeled a no-brainer type of trade as recently as early September. Now, however, that might not be the case anymore as the Ravens secondary, one filled with reserve/backup players throughout most of the first third of the season, has surely stepped up and played impressive football.
"In his third season, Surtain is already one of the top cornerbacks in football," Zrebiec wrote. "He’ll also essentially be under contract for two more seasons."
This won't be a rental and Surtain would instantly become the CB2 of the team across from Marlon Humphrey... or will he? With Brandon Stephens absolutely balling, that might not be the case, right?
The draft capital Baltimore will need to spend to land Surtain might be quite high, and then you have to factor in the extension they will (should, at least) need to sign him to in a couple of seasons.
