“It’s going to be a blessing, being able to learn from the best,” said Tyler Onyedim, the Broncos’ third-round pick and their first selection in the 2026 draft. “I’m excited; I’m happy; I’m excited. I’m just ready to go.
I’m ready to go. ” Onyedim is stepping into a defensive line room that will be missing Jonathan Franklin Myers but has plenty of depth to fill the space, and it will be Onyedim’s role to join that depth. And Onyedim seems more than comfortable with that.
“The mindset is just to learn, don’t be an arrogant person,” he said. “Just learn from the best… cramming everything so I can be the best player I know I can be. ” Draft analyst @dpbrugler has high praise for Broncos DT Tyler Onyedim pic.
