Why
Denver needs to reinforce WR and TE; those are the two positions currently lacking a clear starter and reliable depth. Beyond that, LB and S also require competition to avoid falling short in the medium term.

Track record read
With George Paton at the helm for a single first- and second-round draft, it's premature to define a pattern. However, his sole high-caliber selection was Bo Nix, indicating a clear priority for securing a quarterback and likely favoring floor over upside. Given the scarcity of early-round capital in recent years, each pick has been a high-stakes gamble targeting immediate impact. We'll monitor if this QB tendency solidifies moving forward.

Wyatt Young
Oklahoma State
WRWR para el slot que ya da separación instantánea. Manos seguras, pero su techo vertical limitado podría ser un parche.
Terrance Carter
Texas Tech
TEResuelve ese problema en el slot que pide Payton; un mismatch problemático si lo pulen en bloqueo, pero con un techo brutal.
Ben Roberts
Texas Tech
LBTrae un linebacker moderno que lee snap a snap; el floor es alto, ya opera en espacio, veremos hasta dónde llega su anclaje.
