Broncos Draft: Coleman, Joly Shake Up Roster

0:00On April 29th, the Denver Broncos just dropped their post-draft F-Chart and it's a whole new vibe after seven picks and 13 undrafted free. Agents joined the 90-man roster. The Big Splash is fourth round running back, Jonah Coleman, a physical thumper who's shaking up the backfield right away, challenging Julio McGuachman, and Tallahbadi for short yardage and third down snaps. Meanwhile, Titan Justin Jolie from the fifth round is gunning for early playing time, while seventh-rounder Dallin Bentley fights for a spot, alongside Nate Adkins and Lucas Crow. Over at linebacker, Red Murdoch looks like a special team's beast with fumble-forcing skills and safety, Miles Scott bolsters the secondary depth. No changes at quarterback. It's still bow-knicks, Jared Stidham and Sam Ellinger holding it down. Fans and analysts are buzzing, with the Broncos jumping to number three in the Athletics' post-straft power rankings as a top-superbowl contender. That elite defense returns intact, the Jalen Waddle trade pairs perfectly with Cortland Sutton for Knicks, and Coleman's power running fills the gap, left by Javante Williams.

1:09Sean Payton raved about Coleman, comparing his style to JK Dobbins for that downhill physicality, and called him a third-round talent they snagged, at pick 108. Coleman himself lit up talking about his top 30 visit, his past protection pride, and protecting bow-knicks while bringing locker-room leadership. This draft keeps the Broncos stacked, running it back with a resigned free agent class and insurance against injuries. Knicks keeps growing, the run game's tougher now. Denver's prime to make noise come January.
