Swapping a tight end who tested into the top 20 for Toledo safety. And manual McNeil Warren. His ball skills may cam a ready replacement amid questions of safety, especially with Brandon Jones, nursing and injury and nearing free agency. Round 2 brings Arkansas running back Mike Washington, Jr. after his blazing 4.3340 yard dash, edging out a wide receiver due to injury concerns. Meanwhile, the Bronco's eye offensive line help in round 3 with Georgia Tech interior lineman Keelan Rutledge to potentially replace Ben Powers. Who's in trade talks? This addresses depth issues on the line while freeing up cap space. Later picks bolster the defensive line, add blocking tight ends like Stanford, Sam Rausch, and grab tackles and linebackers for the future.
