The Denver Broncos will have plenty of options to choose from in the first round of the 2015 NFL Draft when they hit the clock at #28. However, there’s just a select few guys who’ll be at the top of the team’s wishlist heading into the festivities in Chicago. Here’s our list of 3 Players The Denver Broncos Are Likely To Draft In The 1st Round.
OT TJ Clemmings - Pittsburgh
The Denver Broncos are almost guaranteed to target an offensive tackle first, and Clemmings would provide the franchise with an instant fit. Clemmings is one of the most athletic tackles of the past few drafts, combining elite reach and movement similar to a tight end when he gets separation. He can stop on a dime and change directions in rhythm with any run or pass play, making him a uniquely versatile commodity.
OT Ereck Flowers - Miami
Flowers plays with a true edge and a pronounced chip on his shoulder, and that aggressiveness will serve him well in the NFL trenches. The Broncos are looking for someone to protect and secure Peyton Manning's blind side, and Flowers’ impressive size/strength combination could be just what the team needs to plug that hole right up.
OT La'El Collins - LSU
Collins has a wealth of core strength which allows him to drive up and through defenders with maximum force. He's got a mean streak that translates over to his energy on the field, and his hand placement and instinctual balancing ability makes him a hard guy to move both in run blocking and pass protection.
