Denver Broncos acquire linebacker Dekoda Watson in trade with 49ers

A few minutes into Day 3 of the draft, and Denver is already wheeling and dealing.

Another trade: 49ers trading LB Dekoda Watson and a sixth-round pick (No. 212) to the Broncos for a fifth-round pick (No. 148), per league source.

According to Adam Schefter, the Broncos traded out of their 5th-round pick (#148), to acquire Dekoda Watson and a 6th-round pick (#212) from the San Fransisco 49ers.

If that name sounds familiar, it’s because Watson used to be a Bronco. Dekoda Watson spent a year on the Broncos roster in 2016.
