Third Round

Although in an ideal world the Broncos would be able to re-sign Chris Harris Jr. to be their nickel cornerback for the time being, this is a good cornerback class and one of the best fits for the Broncos is Louisiana Tech’s Amik Robertson, a 5-foot-8 corner who plays about four inches taller.

Robertson attacks the football and has some of the best instincts in the draft at his position, and with tackling being a non-negotiable for Vic Fangio, Robertson fits in perfectly.

He has inside-outside versatility and could contribute immediately.

This will continue to be one of my favorite day two picks until it doesn’t happen or someone better is on the board in real life.

Saahdiq Charles is a bit raw in his overall skill set, but he’s got some fantastic tape from the 2019 season where he served as the blindside protector for Heisman-winner and likely number one pick Joe Burrow.

Checking in at the Scouting Combine at 6-foot-4, 325 pounds, Charles has an NFL-ready frame but may be a year away from playing significant snaps. He could be the guy to come in and possibly push Garett Bolles.

The closer we get to the 2020 NFL Draft, the more it’s apparent how deep the offensive line class is.

The Broncos have needs on the interior offensive line, specifically at center and right guard, and John Simpson is a player who has played both guard spots for the Clemson Tigers.

He’s a dominant force physically, but Simpson showed he is capable of doing more than just dominating as a road grader in the run game and can get out into space and play well in a hybrid scheme like the Broncos employ under Mike Munchak.
