Broncos Eyeing Ole Miss TE Dae’Quan Wright

About this episode

DaeQuan Wright, a 64, 246-pound tight end from Ole Miss, is a day three draft prospect for the Denver Broncos. Known for his vertical speed, Wright had a breakout senior year with 39 catches, 635 yards, and 5 TDs. Despite skipping the combine, he impressed scouts at pro day with his route-running, hands, and seam-stretching ability. The Broncos, who have re-signed Adam Trautman and kept Nate Adkins and Lucas Krull, could use fresh legs in their tight end room. While Wright needs to improve his blocking and contested catches, his route-running and hands make him an attractive option for a depth role. Analyst Lance Zierlein sees him as a day three pick, and the Broncos have shown interest, making Wright a potential fit in Denver come April.

On April 5th, the Denver Broncos are eyeing Ole Miss Titan Dayquan Wright as a day-three pick in the 2026 NFL draft. This 6'4", 246 pound receiver stands out with his vertical speed, making him a real thread downfield. Over two seasons with the Rebels, he hauled in 66 catches for 1029 yards and 9 touchdowns, capping it with a breakout. Senior year of 39 grabs, 635 yards and 5 scores. Wright kicked off Virginia before transferring to Ole Miss, where he turned heads in 28 games. He skipped Combine testing, but ran routes for Scouts at Pro Day, showing off his scene-stretching ability and after the catch moves. Meanwhile, the Broncos have resigned Adam Troutman and kept Nate Atkins and Lucas Crowell on cheap deals, but their tight-in room still needs fresh. Licks, fans and Scouts see upside and writes route running in hands, plus he lined up everywhere from inline to slot. He battled through a big injury last year, proving his grit, though blocking technique

and contested catches need work. Drops weren't issue early, but he cleaned that up late. Analyst Lance Xerlein calls him a day-three guy who could grind for a depth role, praising his speed against linebackers, but noting hip stiffness. The Broncos chatted with him at the Combine, and virtually after, signaling real interest. If they want receiving pop without Big Bucks late in the draft, Wright fits the moldwatch if he lands in Denver, come April.
