rangy, instinctive ball hawk with All-Big Ten polish
In the 2014 season, Kurtis Drummond was the heartbeat of Michigan State’s secondary, finishing with 72 tackles and 4 interceptions while earning first-team All-Big Ten and Big Ten Defensive Back of the Year honors[2][5]. He stood out for his size, physicality, and elite instincts—scouts consistently praised his ball skills and leadership, and Michigan State described him as a big, powerful safety with outstanding hitting ability[4][13][15]. He fits best on a team that wants a smart, downhill safety who can read plays quickly and bring edge, not just collect stats[4][9].
