NFL draft preview: Plenty of options if Broncos pass on tight end in first round

Tight ends in the draft

BRONCOS STATUS

On the roster: Jeff Heuerman, Jake Butt, Troy Fumagalli and Temarrick Hemingway.

Level of need: High. Heuerman (ribs), Butt (ACL) and Fumagalli (abdominal) were injured last year and the Broncos opted to let Matt LaCosse walk in free agency. The need is based on the unknowns regarding Butt and Fumgalli in particular. Butt has three ACL tears on his record and Fumagalli hasn’t played in an NFL game.

MID-ROUND OPTIONS

Kahale Warring, San Diego State

Caught only 51 passes in 26 games so his early entry was a semi-surprise.
