7. Denver Broncos: Jared Veldheer, OT
The Broncos have long had issues at the right tackle position, and they were willing to pay top dollar to fix the problem this offseason.
John Elway went out and traded a sixth-round draft pick for Jared Veldheer, who started off slow for the Cardinals last year but found his groove and played very well the majority of the season before an injury cut his year short.
Veldheer is a veteran who has proven himself a very capable and effective starter in both the run game and in pass protection when he’s healthy, but the key is keeping him healthy.
The Broncos didn’t give up much to get Veldheer, but if he can solidify their right tackle spot (finally), it will be one of Elway’s most shrewd moves as general manager yet.
