6. Parnell Motley, CB, Oklahoma

Motley was a three-year starter for the Sooners. He finished his career with six interceptions and 39 pass deflections. With Chris Harris Jr. seemingly having one foot out the door, the Broncos have a lot of question marks at the cornerback position. Motley could be on Elway’s radar on Day 3 of the draft.

“Motley is a draftable player,” Brugler said. “Patient footwork from press with the physicality needed for the position. However, he needs to be more subtle with his aggressive nature to avoid the flags. Consistency was an issue vs. the run and the pass on tape, but there are enough tools there worth coaching up.”

7. John Hightower, WR, Boise State

Hightower finished this past season with 943 receiving yards and eight touchdowns while also proving special teams value as a returner. The Broncos have a top-12 wide receiver with Courtland Sutton, now they need to continue to add talent to the wide receiver room.

“Denver needs more speed on offense and that’s what John Hightower out of Boise State offers,” Brugler said. “He needs to be a better finisher and teams need to be comfortable with his off-field background. But he might be the 4th round version of Will Fuller with his wheels to get vertical and stretch out the defense.”
