Broncos trade up for RB Ashton Jeanty in NFL mock draft
After filling several key needs during free agency, the Denver Broncos now have one big need left to target in the NFL draft: running back.
In last week's first-round NFL mock draft for Fox Sports, David Helman has Denver addressing the position by trading up for Boise State star Ashton Jeanty.
Helman mocks the Broncos trading up from No. 20 to No. 13 with the Miami Dolphins (the projection does not include an estimated cost for the trade).
"Sean Payton is an aggressive guy looking to add a dynamic weapon to his offense," Helman wrote for Fox Sports. "If Jeanty somehow slides past Dallas at No. 12, I'm not sure if he'd be able to help himself. Jeanty makes Denver a more explosive team and Bo Nix an even better quarterback, right away."
After trading down, Miami lands Texas cornerback Jahdae Barron at No. 20. To view the complete NFL mock draft, visit Fox Sports.
