Broncos select LB Justin Strnad in 5th round of NFL Draft

The Broncos selected Justin Strnad in the fifth round of the 2020 NFL Draft.

With the 178th pick in the fifth round of the 2020 NFL Draft, the Denver Broncos selected Wake Forest inside linebacker Justin Strnad.

Strnad (6-3, 238 pounds) ran a 40-yard dash in 4.74 seconds and ran a 20-yard shuttle in 4.49 seconds at the combine earlier this offseason. NFL.com’s Lance Zierlein projected Strnad would be a fourth-round pick so Denver getting him near the end of the fifth round was good value.
