One thing to keep in mind about Day 3 of the NFL draft is that Vic Fangio was a part of an organization that found Adrian Amos, Eddie Jackson, and Tarik Cohen in the last rounds of the NFL draft. There is talent out there to mine. A lot of it.

Below you will find the players I spent time studying since the 2018 season ended. They’re ranked by the order I’d take them in, by round. My criteria when evaluating them was strictly what I think they can do for the Denver Broncos.
