Broncos Trade for Waddle, Stockpile Picks in 2026 Draft

0:00On March 19th, the Denver Broncos have locked in their picks for the 2026 NFL Draft after trading for wide receiver Jalen Waddle. They now hold seven selections overall, with their first coming in the second round at the 60 second spot. That trade reshaped their draft board, leaving them without a first rounder, but stocking up later. They picked up two fourth round choices at numbers 111, plus a fifth rounder at 170. They're buzzing about how this sets up the team for depth, especially with Waddle boosting their passing game already. It's a smart move for a squad looking to compete now, while planning ahead. On top of those, Denver has three seventh round picks at 246, 256, and 257, giving them plenty. Of chances to find Jim's late, the 2026 draft kicks off Thursday, April 23rd, so keep an eye on how the Broncos use these to round out the roster.
