6 star players the Broncos could have drafted in the last five years
2022 NFL Draft
The Pick: Greg Dulcich, TE (No. 80 overall)
Player the Broncos could have had: Nakobe Dean, LB (No. 83 overall)
Based off of what we saw in 2022, it's hard to call Nakobe Dean a star but because I pounded the table so hard for him before the draft, I'm going to stick with it because he was a star in college.
His fall down the draft board was mystifying and he had a quiet season with the NFC champion Philadelphia Eagles, but he still has plenty of time to turn things around.
Greg Dulcich is a nice player and was probably the best rookie on the team last year. But he's not likely to ever be considered a star. Dean still has that kind of upside.
