According to Mike Klis of the Denver Post, Broncos first pick, 2nd rounder Derek Wolfe agreed to a 4 year, 5.2 million dollar contract, 3.2 million of which is guaranteed

The 36th overall selection in the NFL Draft appears to be a big part of the Broncos defense this year. Wolfe projects to be a rookie starter at the Three Technique position opposite of Justin Bannan/Ty Warren.

Wolfe will miss all 3 of the upcoming OTA's because he is attending graduation. Wolfe will be at the Broncos final offseason mini-camps, June 12-14th.

""It’s frustrating because I want to be out there with my teammates," Wolfe said from his home in Lisbon, Ohio. ""But it’s one of those things where it’s out of my control. I’ve been working out back here at home. I wish I was back there, believe me.
