On April 25th, the Denver Broncos just plugged a huge hole in their defensive line by drafting Texas A&M defensive tackle Tyler Anya-Dem with the 66th overall pick. They traded down from the second round to grab him after losing pass-resher John Franklin Myers to free agency. On the item built his game over four seasons at Iowa State before transferring to Texas A&M last year. There he hit career-bests with 9.5 tackles for loss and 3.5 sacks showing the burst team's crave up front. Fans and analysts see this as a smart, no-frills move that fits Sean Payton's love for experienced players. At just 22 years old, Anya-Dem has already logged 53 college games and even shares a pass connection with Broncos' lineman Ayyoma Uwazurike. This adds depth next to last year's third-rounder Sivione Jones keeping the pressure coming in waves. Despite franchise sack records over the last two seasons, he's the Broncos only top 100 defensive line pick this year.

Denver's stacking talent to maintain one of the league's top fronts, setting up Oni Atom for real snaps right away in that deep rotation.
