Draft Landmines & Hidden Gems: Broncos Big Board Breakdown

The Denver Broncos are entering the 2026 NFL Draft with just one top-100 pick — which means they can’t afford to miss. On the DNVR Draft Podcast, we break down the most overrated prospects the Broncos should avoid and the late-round gems who could elevate the roster.

Under head coach Sean Payton and GM George Paton, Denver has to be sharper than ever in their evaluations.

Segment 1: Prospects We Hate

Which NFL Draft prospects are being overhyped — and why would they be bad fits for the Broncos? We identify the biggest red flags and potential bust candidates Denver should stay away from.

Segment 2: Sleepers & Day 3 Gems

With limited premium draft capital, finding hidden value is critical. We highlight our favorite late-round sleepers and Day 3 prospects who could become key contributors in Denver.

Segment 3: Matt Miller 7-Round Mock Draft

We react to Matt Miller’s 7-round mock draft on ESPN. Who did he give the Broncos, and does it actually make sense for Denver’s needs and long-term build? We talk through who the Broncos should avoid, who they should target, and how they can maximize this draft with limited picks.

Join Jake Schwanitz, Henry Chisholm and Andre Simone for deep-cut prospects, hidden gems, and smart draft strategy for the Denver Broncos.
