We are less than one month away from the 2025 NFL Draft.
The Denver Broncos made a huge impact during free agency, solidifying their already stout defense with the signings of safety Talanoa Hufanga and linebacker Dre Greenlaw. They then added the top available free agent tight end in Evan Engram. The Broncos could still use a little more firepower on offense, and can acquire some in the draft.
Our A to Z Sports writers and draft gurus Adam Holt and Rob Gregson composed a two-round mock draft on Tuesday, and gave the Broncos a couple of more weapons for second year quarterback Bo Nix to work with. Let's analyze their choices for Denver below. . .
No. 20: WR Emeka Egbuka, Ohio State
"Sean Payton largely overturned a mess of an offensive line in his first year in Denver. Now it's about finding weapons for his QB Bo Nix, and Egbuka is the perfect option to play the Z opposite of Courtland Sutton." — Rob Gregson
Egbuka is one of the most polished and pro-ready wide receivers in this year's class. He is primarily a slot receiver who is an excellent route runner and is sure-handed.
Egbuka has a great blend of size and speed at 6-foot-1 and a 40-yard dash time of 4.4. He would be a natural fit in coach Sean Payton's offense and complete a talented pass catching trio with Sutton and Engram.
No. 51: TE Elijah Arroyo, Miami
Yes, the Broncos just signed Engram, but only to a two-year deal. It would be good for Denver to draft a developmental tight end who can grow with Nix and build a connection with him for the long-term.
Arroyo is one of the most physically gifted players in the draft, ranking second among all TEs in athleticism score. He needs time to polish his route running and blocking skills, but he'll have that with Engram leading the way.
Denver Broncos may have 1 less RB to choose from during 2025 NFL Draft as value for the position continues to increase
It will be interesting to see how everything falls.
