SB Nation’s Dan Kadar released his most recent first-round mock draft on Tuesday. In his mock draft, he has the Broncos bolstering their defensive line by adding Iowa defensive lineman A.J. Epenesa.
Here is Kadar’s reasoning for the selection of Epenesa.
15. Denver Broncos: A.J. Epenesa, DE, Iowa
Denver is another team in which it will be worth monitoring what happens to the roster. If defensive lineman Derek Wolfe departs, the Broncos could find a ready-made replacement in Epenesa.
Kadar states that the potential departure of veteran Derek Wolfe will cause the Broncos to address the defensive line in the first-round.
