Denver Broncos draft needs: 5 small schoolers who can turn the Broncos around
The Denver Broncos struggled a bit last year and this year if they want to come out swinging they better find themselves a quarterback. Case Keenum was not the answer and they found a solid running game via the draft. If they can hit on these small school players they will be in good condition in 2019. Here are their team needs: Quarterback, Offensive Tackle, Defensive Line, Wide Receiver, and Tight End.
Devlin Hodges, QB, Samford – The Broncos are likely going to draft a quarterback high, but it would be smart to sign one as an undrafted free agent and Hodges is a guy that may not go draft who can sling the ball. He broke Steve McNair’s passing record and is a true gunslinger. This would be a great signing for the Broncos after the draft.
Chidi Okeke, OT, Tennessee State – Chidi is a big boy with a mean streak. The offensive line coach at Tennessee State is one of the best in all of college football. He seems to send at least one O-Lineman to the NFL every year. Chidi is his next work of art, and Chidi could make a team spend a late round pick on him. The Broncos land a stud who can protect their new quarterback.
Khalen Saunders, DL, Western Illinois – If the Broncos are serious they will want to sure up their defensive line with an amazing pass rusher already in Von Miller. Saunders is a freak of a man at 6020 and 310 pounds. He tore up the Senior Bowl and is a draft pick. The Broncos will need to spend a draft pick on him but he will bless them year in and year out.
Jason Moore, WR. University of Findlay – Jason Moore is a guy that really has solid size and speed. He was a participant of the NFLPA All-Star game and I heard some teams really loved what they saw. I think Moore will go undrafted, and if he does the Broncos could be all over him. He has speed and size and the Broncos like that.
Marcus Ademilola, TE, Bucknell – Ademilola is a 6040 tight end with solid hands. I like the kid and he is what we would call a super sleeper, or diamond in the rough. I think he has the smarts to be taught how to become a tight end in the Broncos system. He has the intangibles and you cannot teach that!
