Key points
- Broncos GM George Paton shared insights on draft strategy
- Team is focused on six players for second-round pick
- Positions of interest include tight end, running back, linebacker, and defensive line
- Eli Stowers and Jadarian Price are among the targeted prospects
Denver Broncos
- Vanderbilt TE Eli Stowers
- Ohio State TE Max Klare
- Georgia TE Oscar Delp Eli Stowers has been connected to the Broncos throughout this draft process, and he fits that âJokerâ archetype that Sean Payton looks for. However, heâs more of a wide receiver than a tight end, and we saw the Broncos struggle to utilize , who has a similar skill set, effectively last season. Max Klare is another receiving threat at tight end, but he is more well-rounded than Stowers and seems like a realistic option for the Broncos. Blocking isnât a strength, but he can survive out there while also being a receiving threat at tight end, which is something the Broncos desperately need. He makes a lot of sense for the Broncos. Georgiaâs Oscar Delp doesnât have the college production you look for, but the talent and receiving ability is hard to ignore. His athletic traits match Stowers and Klare, but he is a much better blocker than both and is another player I could see the Broncos having a lot of interest in. **Running Back**
