Broncos' Draft Strategy: Trading Cornerbacks for Picks

0:00It's April 21st. From kickoff to the final whistle, this is NFL News Today, powered by AI. The Denver Broncos got a solid roster locked in, but their 2026 draft picks are Thin1 and the top 103 and the top 150. With the draft starting Thursday, they might flip some expiring contracts into extra early selections to beef up that hole. News always buzz about cornerbacks Riley Moss and Jocquon McMillian, both on deals ending soon. Whiteouts like Marvin Mims Jr. or Troy Franklin pop up in rumors too. But the real trade bait here centers on those defensive backs ready to cash in. Big next year. Moss stands out as the prize. He's a sharp number two corner that needy teams could plug in right away as a top guy. Dealing him might snag a third rounder. Maybe even a second, especially after moves like the Rams coughing up a first for a similar talent. Broncos hold depth with Jody Barron stepping up and Chris Abrams drain in the mix.

1:03That trade will reset their corner room on the cheap dodging Moss's looming 20 million plus a year contract. It'd sting the locker room since teammates dick him and swapping McMillian instead could dip their takeaway numbers, though Barron fits nickel. Perfect. Draft days two and three on Friday and Saturday could spark action if the price hits right. Santa fails all business, so Broncos stay patient till it does.
