Denver Broncos News: Horse Tracks - Final Mock of the Year Edition

Final Mock

- I went BPA at position of need how the board fell.

- 3 o-line might be overkill but all three are quality players that would have a shot to start along the O-line.

- Excited that Byron Jones was there in the 2nd, this gives the Broncos ultimate flexibility with their defensive backfield.

- Nick O'Leary is the kind of tough, versatile, playmaking TE this team needs and all he cost was a 4th rounder.

- I did cartwheels when I saw Hau'oli Kihaka available in the 5th. This guy will give the Broncos another pass rushing option off the edge.

- Jeff Luc doesn't totally solve the ILB issues, but he is an aggressive two-down thumper that should fit right in Wade Phillips 3-4.

- Deion Simon represents a large NT prospect that has all the physical tools but needs some coaching and experience.

- The final two picks were spent on the pass rush.

Overall, I think this was a knockout of a final draft and I would be excited to see the Broncos do this well. What do you think MHR?
