| What Are The Denver Broncos Draft Picks In 2023 |
No First Round? No Problem!
QuickTip: Check if a section answers your question.
Thanks to some fancy footwork (and maybe a metaphorical handshake with the ghost of John Elway), the Broncos traded away their first-rounder for Russell Wilson. Now, some folks might say that's a bold move, but hey, bold is what John Elway would have wanted (probably). Regardless, the good news is, the Broncos still managed to snag some intriguing prospects in later rounds. Let's meet the crew!
Tip: Don’t just scroll to the end — the middle counts too.
- Round 2: Wide Receiver Marvin Mims Jr., Oklahoma - This Sooner brings the speed! We're talkin' cheetah-chasing-gazelle kind of speed. Look out for him burning defenses deep down the field.
- Round 3: Linebacker Drew Sanders, Arkansas - Dude's a tackling machine! Imagine a whirling dervish of a linebacker, only instead of a colorful skirt, he's wearing orange and blue. That's Drew Sanders, folks.
- Round 3: Cornerback Riley Moss, Iowa - Moss by name, Moss by game! This Hawkeye has an eye for the ball and a knack for shutting down passing lanes. Say goodbye to sleepless nights worrying about quarterbacks picking us apart.
- Round 6: Safety JL Skinner, Boise State - This Bronco is a ball hawk! He'll be all over the field, cleaning up plays and making sure no opponent gets a free pass...literally or figuratively.
- Round 7: Center Alex Forsyth, Oregon - The anchor of the offensive line! This guy's got the smarts and the strength to make sure Russell Wilson has a clean pocket and plenty of time to unleash those laser beams he calls passes.
Tip: Don’t just scroll — pause and absorb.

So, How'd They Do?
Well, that depends on who you ask. Some NFL pundits slapped a "D" on the draft class, claiming the Broncos didn't have enough firepower without a first-round pick. But hey, championships aren't won on draft grades alone (although a good grade would be nice). We'll have to see how these rookies develop and how they fit into the team's strategy.
How to Become an Expert on the 2023 Broncos Draft Class (or at least pretend to be one):
