Nose Tackle is a position Denver needs to address

As the Denver Broncos decided to let Domata Peko walk in free agency, the need for a nose tackle was shown. There is a chance that Peko does come back, but it all depends on how the draft this weekend plays out.

But with that hole right in the middle of the defense, it is important to get it filled as soon as possible. Ed Oliver is the guy who could start right away at Oakland.

While the Denver Broncos do have Shelby Harris on the roster, drafting Oliver would almost assume that they believe in him enough to be in the orange and blue on opening night.

If Denver is looking for that blue chip prospect at nose tackle, this is the man that you would want to draft.
