The Denver Broncos signed two more draft picks on Thursday afternoon as they have come to terms with their sixth round draft picks Will Parks and Andy Janovich.

On Wednesday afternoon, the Denver Broncos came to terms with their seventh round draft pick Riley Dixon. Now, the Broncos are almost halfway there to having all of their draft picks under contract.

Former Arizona Wildcat safety Will Parks and Nebraska Cornhusker full back Andy Janovich have agreed to rookie deals with the Denver Broncos. This makes three draft picks signed in about 24 hours.

With Will Parks, the Denver Broncos will have depth at the secondary position, a position that has a lot of talent around it with players like Chris Harris Jr., Aqib Talib, Bradley Roby, T.J. Ward, and a few others.

Will Parks reminds me a bit like Ward in his abilities to line up and really put a beatdown on opposing pass catchers. When the Broncos drafted him, I was a bit curious as to why. And then it made sense. With Justin Simmons on the roster, if something were to happen to Darian Stewart or Ward, these two would fill in nicely.

Full back Andy Janovich should be on the final roster once training camp and preseason is over. Gary Kubiak is looking to use the full back position in 2016. Janovich could be a great addition to the team.

His abilities to block either in the pass or the run, catch outside the backfield, or lineup in the tight end position gives him many options at that position. Another thing going for Janovich is that the position is his job for the time being.

Next: Shane Ray adding muscle

The Broncos announced that they have released veteran full back Toben Opurum after learning that he has failed his physical. This means that Janovich is now the only true full back on the roster. I like his odds of making the roster.

With three draft picks signed, the rest should follow suit in the next couple days. Keep it here at Predominantly Orange as we keep you updated on the draft signings.
