Denver Broncos general manager George Paton made nine selections in the 2022 NFL draft this weekend. Here’s a quick look at the team’s draft class.
Round 2: Oklahoma OLB Nik Bonitto
Round 3: UCLA TE Greg Dulcich
Round 4: Pitt CB Demarri Mathis
Round 4: Iowa State DL Eyioma Uwazurike
Round 5: Oklhoma S Delarrin Turner-Yell
Round 5: Samford WR Montrell Washington
Round 5: Washington C Luke Wattenberg
Round 6: Wisconsin DL Matt Henningsen
Round 7: Wisconsin CB Faion Hicks
The Broncos did not address right tackle or inside linebacker in the draft, perhaps a sign that the team is confident in Billy Turner and Jonas Griffith going into the 2022 season. Besides OT and LB, though, Denver did check off needs at pass rusher, TE, CB, DL and returner.
After making nine picks, the Broncos have 10 open spots on the roster for undrafted free agents. We will be tracking the team’s UDFA signings on this page in the coming days.
