Isaac Yiadom, age 22

The Broncos drafted Isaac Yiadom in the third round of the 2018 NFL Draft and after watching some of his college tape, it looks like they got themselves a steal.

Yiadom has great length for the position and excels in press-man coverage, which is what the Broncos will primarily be asking him to do.

If Yiadom can contribute from the slot, he might have an expanded role as a rookie. Otherwise, the Broncos will ease him in his rookie season on special teams.

Where the team really fell in love with Yiadom was at the Senior Bowl, where they worked with him extremely closely.

Even with Langley having a year of experience on Yiadom, it’s not unlikely that Yiadom is the more refined of the two players and the Broncos will use their rookie more this season.
