Fourth Round (pick 1/2): Chukwuma Okorafor, OT, Western Michigan

With the Broncos’ top pick in the fourth round, I’m projecting a bit of a fall for a draft prospect that I personally like, but that is sort of falling as of late.

Chukwuma Okorafor has all of the physical tools required to excel in the NFL, but perhaps not the aggressive mentality that teams covet at the position.

Okorafor has starting experience both at left and right tackle, and has the type of size (6-6, 330) that the Broncos have often shown they covet at the tackle position. If Denver is going to go a different route in the first few rounds, this would be an absolute steal on the early portion of day three, regardless of how Okorafor works out.

He’s got all of the makings of a starting tackle in the NFL, but maybe isn’t quite as ready right now as teams would like in a player they look for on day one or two.
