The Denver Broncos finished up their rookie mini-camp last weekend. It ended on a terrible note with 3rd round tight end Jeff Heuerman tearing his ACL.

Besides Heuerman, the Broncos made some other popular picks to fans, taking projected top-10 pick edge rusher Shane Ray at the end of the first round and local product offensive lineman Ty Sambrailo in the second.

But I’m here to talk about the picks that might not be talked about and perhaps are overlooked. These are the guys that were taken in the later rounds or went undrafted; prospects that fly in under-the-radar for the most part.

I watched a couple games of each of these players. Since they aren’t highly touted prospects, that’s as much as I can ask for. As usual, you can find game video of many prospects on draftbreakdown.com.

Here are the unknown rookies I came away impressed with and think have a shot at making the 53-man roster this year.
