No one expected the Denver Broncos to go cornerback in the first round of the 2025 draft. I’d also feel comfortable saying no one likely thought Jahdae Barron would fall to 20, either.
The Broncos made a pick that looks on the surface like a team taking the best talent that fell to them in the draft.
I think the hype of the draft gets in the way of reality at times for many of us out in Broncos Country. I firmly have not forgotten how poor our secondary looked last season against good quarterbacks.
