Broncos met with 9 offensive linemen ahead of NFL draft

The Denver Broncos appear to be planning for the future at guard and tackle. The Broncos brought in Oregon guard Emmanuel Pregnon for a "local" visit last week, according to KUSA-TV's Mike Klis . Because he's from Denver, Pregnon (6-4, 314 pounds) does not count against the team's limit of 30 pre-draft visits.

Pregnon is considered one of the top guards in this year's class, and NFL. com has him projected as a Round 2 prospect. The Broncos' first pick this year is No.

62 overall in the second round. Denver's offensive line coach, Zach Strief, attended Georgia Tech’s pro day , presumably to get a close look at guard Keylan Rutledge (6-4, 316 pounds). The league's official website has Rutledge projected as a second- or third-round pick.

The Broncos met with Memphis offensive tackle Travis Burke at his pro day , and he also had a Zoom call with the club. He's considered a third- or fourth-round prospect. Elsewhere on the tackle front, Denver hosted Boston College's Jude Bowry (6-5, 314 pounds) and Missouri's Keagen Trost (6-5, 311 pounds).
