The Broncos did some moving and shaking early on Day 3 so they didn’t pick until the first selection of round five, but it certainly was a value selection nabbing Michigan tight end Jake Butt.
Size: 6-foot-5, 246 pounds
College: Michigan
Age: 21
Butt, please no jokes, was extremely productive at Michigan earning back-to-back second-team All-American and John Mackey (nation’s best tight end) honors. He’ll bring another talent to a Broncos tight end room.
The Wolverines tight end was a likely second round pick before tearing his anterior cruciate ligament December 30th against Florida State.
