Denver Broncos 2014 NFL Draft Overview
After looking at the positions Denver should focus in free agency and the combine starting this past week it is time to really look at the direction Denver should go in this years NFL draft. To put it bluntly Denver should look at the best player available when the 31st pick in the draft. As an independent blogger I still have the freedom to say that I believe Denver's roster from top to bottom is already the best in the NFL. However the teams in the NFL are so closely matched that things can change drastically over the course of one offseason. Teams like Oakland and Cleveland have a ton of free cap room, already have some solid young pieces, and are just two examples of teams who could arise quickly this season. Great teams are built in the draft and Denver needs to make sure it hits on their picks this year. All the positions where Denver has holes such as corner, middle linebacker, safety, defensive end, and even defensive tackle are all possibilities. However they could also look to add depth to positions like wide receiver, guard, and even running back. While last years draft was not bad I think they expected more out of Sylvester Williams, and even Montee Ball. Denver needs to have one or two guys that they draft this year to really step up. Some names that should be available when Denver picks are Stephon Tuitt a DT from Notre Dame, Bradley Roby a corner from Ohio State, Dee Ford a DE from Auburn, Kelvin Benjamin a WR from Florida State, Jason Verrett a corner from TCU, Yawin Smallwood a MLB from UCONN, and even though it may be a little high to take Shane Skov, or Chris Boreland, both middle linebackers from Stanford and Wisconsin respectively I think there names would be in the mix as well. Another potential player here would be a corner named Keith McGill who is 6'3, and very talented. Any of these players would be solid pick ups, but one thing is for sure and that is Denver should not get to fascinated with any prospect and should take the best player available when it comes time for them to make their draft picks.
