Surratt’s biggest differentiator is his rare path from quarterback to linebacker, which shows up in his anticipation, coverage awareness, and feel for the game; at North Carolina he became a 2020 first-team All-ACC performer after leading the Tar Heels with 91 tackles, 7.5 tackles for loss, and six sacks, signaling impact beyond raw stops.[3][6][7] He’s a fit for teams that value versatility, urgency, and upside from a player who learned the position fast and played with notable aggression and production.[4][7]
