The Broncos are pick-strapped in this year's draft, with only five selections starting with No. 67 overall in the third round. But tight end is clearly a focus.
Keeler: How can Russell Wilson make Broncos Country forget his DisasteRuss 2022? Experts say these 3 things have to happen.
Notre Dame’s Michael Mayer, who led the Irish in receptions each of the past two seasons, is widely viewed as one of top tight ends in the class along with Utah’s Dalton Kincaid. Both have a chance of going in the first round, and both are probably out of reach for Payton and general manager George Paton.
Musgrave and Schoonmaker both had or have pre-draft visits with the Broncos, who might have to trade up to get one of the second-tier tight ends. Denver’s also met with Jack Colletto, a tight end/fullback/wildcat QB/special teamer from Oregon State who profiles as a Taysom Hill-type for Payton. In terms of current draft positioning, a value middle-round deal such as LaPorta or Kraft, though not flashy or overtly athletic, could be the most realistic option for Denver.
