Tag: Broncos draft picks

The NFL awarded compensatory picks on Friday afternoon (the Denver Broncos, as expected, did not get any comp picks), and that means the official order of the 2024 NFL draft has now been finalized.

The Broncos hold eight draft picks this year, including the 12th overall pick in the first round. Denver does not hold a second-round pick following the trade for coach Sean Payton last year, but the Broncos do have first, third- and fourth-round selections.

Denver acquired two more late-round picks on Saturday when they agreed to trade wide receiver Jerry Jeudy to the Cleveland Browns.

With the order now confirmed by the league, here’s a look at Denver’s official order of picks in the 2024 NFL draft:

Round 1: 12th overall (own pick)
Round 3: 76th overall (own pick) 
Round 4: 121st overall (via MIA) 
Round 5: 136th overall (via CLE) 
Round 5: 145th overall (via NYJ) 
Round 5: 147th overall (own pick) 
Round 6: 203rd overall (via CLE) 
Round 6: 207th overall (via SF) 

So, what happened to the team’s original fourth-, sixth- and seventh-round picks? The fourth went to the New York Jets in 2022 as part of the Jake Martin trade, the sixth went to the Los Angeles Rams in 2021 as part of the Kenny Young trade, and the seventh went to the San Francisco 49ers in 2023 as part of the Randy Gregory trade.

The 2024 NFL draft will be held in Detroit from April 25-27.
