Unlike many mock drafters, NFL Network draft analyst Mike Mayock only releases one mock draft every year. It usually takes place the night before the draft starts. This year, Mayock has the Broncos taking Oregon offensive tackle Jake Fisher in the first round of the 2015 NFL Draft.

Fisher makes a ton of sense for the Broncos in the first round. He's an athletic lineman who can play tackle or guard in the NFL. The Broncos have last year's third-round pick Michael Schofield on the roster, and if he pans out Fisher would shift inside and replace Orlando Franklin at left guard.
Mayock has offensive lineman Brandon Scherff, Ereck Flowers, Andrus Peat, D.J. Humphries and T.J. Clemmings going before the Broncos pick at 28. Texas A&M offensive tackle Cedric Ogbuehi who the Broncos have been connected to goes to the Colts, one spot after the Broncos pick.
