Denver Broncos 2021 Draft Picks

 Here is the Broncos 2021 NFL Draft class......

Round 1 #9 overall: Patrick Surtain II, CB, Alabama

-Surtain should come in and start early or play very early on in nickel and dime situations. He should be an impact CB for this team for years to come.

Round 2 #35 overall: Javonte Williams, RB, North Carolina

-The Broncos traded up in the 2nd round to get Williams. He should be part of the 1-2 punch with Melvin Gordon at RB right away this year.

Round 3 #98 overall: Quinn Meinerz, OG, Wisconsin-Whitewater

-The small school stud dominated at the Senior Bowl. He should come in and be a depth guy at first on the line, but I could see him pushing Lloyd Cushenberry at Center or even Graham Glasgow at Guard at some point.

Round 3 #105 overall: Baron Browning, LB, Ohio State

-Maybe Browning gets into the rotation at LB, but look for him to get some reps on defense and provide special teams help.

Round 5 #152 overall: Caden Sterns, S, Texas

-Sterns is probably not cracking the starting linuep at safety this year, but he adds depth and will probably contribute on special teams.

Round 5 #164 overall: Jamar Johnson, S, Indiana

-Johnson also won't get a ton of playing time at safety to start the season, and he will contribute on special teams.

Round 6 #219 overall: Seth Williams, WR, Auburn

-Williams provides depth at the WR position. He probably hopes to make it as a practice squad guy his rookie year.

Round 7 #237 overall: Kary Vincent, CB, LSU

-Vincent will try to make it as the 6th or 7th CB on the main roster. If not, he is a practice squad probability next season.

Round 7 #239 overall: Jonathan Cooper, LB, Ohio State

-Cooper could look to make the team as a depth guy and special teams contributor. If not, he is a practice squad candidate as well.

Round 7 #253 overall: Marquiss Spencer, DE, Mississippi State

-Spencer has to hope to make it as a rotational player on the defensive line, and if he doesn't, then he is a practice squad type player as well.
