The Denver Broncos' Draft Picks: From Desperation to Delight (Hopefully)
Ah, the NFL Draft. A time of nervous anticipation, questionable fashion choices by team execs, and enough mel Kiper hairspray to launch a rocket. This year, the Denver Broncos are right in the thick of it, with a war chest full of picks and a head coach, Sean Payton, who's known for his...interesting draft day theatrics. So, what exactly are the Broncos working with? Let's grab some orange Kool-Aid and dive in!
The Big Ticket: The All-Important First Rounder (#12 Overall)
QuickTip: A slow read reveals hidden insights.
The Broncos haven't had a first-round pick since they gambled on a young fella named Jerry Jeudy in 2020. (Jury's still out on that one.) This year, they're sitting at number 12, which puts them right in the thick of the quarterback carousel. Will they take a young gunslinger to lead them to the promised land? Or will they go for another position and leave us all scratching our heads? Only time (and maybe a smoke signal from Payton) will tell.
QuickTip: Pause before scrolling further.
Beyond the First Round: A Shopping Spree for Talent
QuickTip: Pause after each section to reflect.
Thankfully, the Broncos don't have all their eggs in the first-round basket. They've got a nice little haul of picks throughout the draft, including:
QuickTip: Reread tricky spots right away.

- Round 3 (Pick #76): A chance to snag a solid defensive player or maybe even a running back to take some pressure off whoever's lining up under center.
- Rounds 4 & 5 (Multiple Picks): Time to add some depth to the roster, maybe grab a wide receiver who can actually catch the ball (looking at you, dropped-pass extravaganza of 2023).
- Later Rounds (Picks Galore): A chance to find some hidden gems and future stars, or at least some guys who can play special teams without tripping over themselves.
So, Who Are They Going to Pick? That's the Million Dollar Question (or Maybe Just $12 Million)
The beauty (or terror, depending on your outlook) of the draft is the mystery. Analysts are throwing names around like confetti at a parade, with potential quarterbacks, edge rushers, and even a kicker (because hey, why not?) being linked to the Broncos. Ultimately, the decision lies with Payton and his crew. Here's hoping they don't draft another project player who needs more development time than a toddler learning to ride a bike.
