Despite some concerns, Bolles is a high-upside prospect who has the talent to find early success. Stabilizing the offensive line was one of the Broncos offseason goals and this pick helped accomplish that feat.
DeMarcus Walker is a steady performer who is still developing as a player. He has flashed major upside as a pass rusher. Look for him to quickly become a part of Denver’s defensive line rotation. I wouldn’t be surprised to see Walker in the starting lineup by the end of the year.

The Jake Butt pick is going to wind up being a major steal. He’s a mismatch problem in the passing game and is a willing blocker. At this time next year we all will be saying how bright Butt’s future is in the Broncos offense.
Denver added some explosiveness to their offense with Carlos Henderson and Isaiah McKenzie. These are two guys who are extremely dangerous with the football in their hands. McKenzie should grab the roll of primary kick returner early in his rookie season.
Call me crazy, but I see Chad Kelly earning a stop on this roster and part of the team’s future plans. He has tons of talent and could mature in a more professional setting.
