The Denver Broncos' cornerback unit was among the best in the entire NFL last season. Pat Surtain II is your reigning AP NFL Defensive Player of the Year. Riley Moss and Ja’Quan McMillian made plays throughout the year, and rookie Kris Abrams-Draine showed some promise late in the year. When heading into the offseason, there were not many who expected the Broncos to make a major addition to their cornerback room.
Well, they did.
With their 20th overall selection in the 2025 NFL Draft, the Denver Broncos selected Texas cornerback Jahdae Barron. He was viewed as a potential top-10 selection and ended up being the first pure cornerback off the board in the draft.
