In his recent two-round NFL mock draft on Draft Wire, Jeff Risdon has the Denver Broncos making a predictable selection in the first round before beefing up their defensive line in the second round.
The Broncos select North Carolina running back Omarion Hampton at pick No. 20 in Risdon's prediction (a popular pick in mock drafts).
"Hampton's electrifying style and ability to make an impact in the passing game figure to appeal to Sean Payton and his rhythmic offense," Risdon wrote. "Thought about Colston Loveland here but his injury question moved me to Hampton and his dynamic potential."

In the second round, Denver lands Ole Miss defensive lineman Walter Nolen at pick No. 51. That would not be a surprising selection given that Zach Allen, John Franklin-Myers and Malcolm Roach are all currently scheduled to become free agents in 2026.
