ENGLEWOOD, Colo. — The 2026 NFL Draft has begun, and we're keeping track of the newest Broncos over the course of three days for you. See below for a rundown of each of Denver's picks:
ROUND 3
No. 66 overall: DT Tyler Onyedim, Texas A&M
NFL.com prospect overview: "Fifth-year senior who transferred to Texas A&M from Iowa State and made an immediate impact. Onyedim is an impressive athlete with an explosive first step and long arms. He beats blockers into gaps and uses active hands/feet to bypass them, making tackles in tight quarters or down the line. He competes at the point with a stiff punch and powerful upper half to stall blocks. ... His pass rush is behind his run defense but the tools and flashes are promising. Onyedim is a future starter with the athleticism and scheme versatility to play as a 3-technique or odd-front end." - Lance Zierlein
ROUND 4
No. 108 overall: RB Jonah Coleman, Washington
NFL.com prospect overview: "Team captain and productive three-down back. Coleman has a clear understanding of run-blocking schemes and protection duties. He knows where blocks are likely to develop and finds those spots. ... He projects as a Day 3 option who can compete for a job as a three-down backup." - Lance Zierlein

No. 111 overall: OL Kage Casey, Boise State
NFL.com prospect overview: "Well-proportioned, durable tackle prospect who counters his lack of length with persistence that helps him finish the job. Casey is a capable athlete with enough range to reach zone landmarks and the body control to redirect when mirroring edge-to-edge. ... In the run game, he's strong and steady as a drive blocker and his anchor projects as NFL-caliber as he continues to add functional mass. Casey could begin his career as a swing tackle with guard flexibility." - Lance Zierlein

ROUND 5
No. 152 overall: TE Justin Joly, NC State
NFL.com prospect overview: "Undersized pass-catcher with the ability to expand the route tree and challenge man coverage around the field. Joly still needs to polish his route-running but he has the footwork and athletic traits to uncover. He doesn't catch with much hand extension and fights throws on occasion but he makes up for it with impressive body control/catch toughness. His effort and strain as a blocker need to improve. Joly has the ability to contribute as a moveable 'F' tight end." - Lance Zierlein

ROUND 7
No. 246 overall: S Miles Scott, Illinois
The Athletic prospect overview: "Scott is a good-sized athlete for the position, with the tracking and ball skills of a former wideout. A two-time captain, he wore the green dot for the Illini, and his experience as a route runner helps him sort, key and drive on throws in coverage." - Dane Brugler

No. 256 overall: TE Dallen Bentley, Utah
NFL.com prospect overview: "With just three catches over his first two seasons at Utah, Bentley's 48 grabs in 2025 came as a surprise. He has the build of an in-line tight end but mostly uses his size to occupy defenders instead of digging into blocks. A heavy portion of his catches came against zone, so he will need to refine his route running and contested-catch technique to prove he can win on his own. Bentley's NFL future could depend on his ability to play with more tenacity and technique as a run blocker since his catch production from 2025 might not translate." - Lance Zierlein

No. 257 overall: LB Red Murdock, Buffalo
NFL.com prospect overview: "Inside linebacker with a nose for the football and loads of production to prove it. Murdock plays firm at the contact point with physicality and toughness. He's ready for battle when the ball comes downhill, but he lacks the closing burst to stay ahead of blocking schemes and shut down the outside run before it turns the corner. He's a consistent tackler with good stopping power when he's in position. His coverage features too many mistakes and a lack of recovery talent. Murdock lacks speed and third-down value, but he's tough, makes plays and appears suited for core special-teams duties." - Lance Zierlein
