A look at the Broncos' 2010 draft picks:1st round, 22nd pick
WR Demaryius Thomas, Georgia Tech, 6'3", 229
Thomas is big target, certainly chosen by McDaniels to replace B-Marsh. He doesn't have breakneck speed, but he has a lot of raw talent and tons of upside. I think Denver could've traded down for the third time to take him.
1st round, 24th pick
QB Tim Tebow, Florida, 6'3", 245
It's been clear for a while now that Tebow was at the top of McDaniels' list. He has a big arm and is incredibly mobile for the position. He had one of the most stellar collegiate careers ever. His arm mechanics have been criticized and many critics have said he's more equipped to play another position such as halfback or tight end. I think the Broncos could've waited till the second round to grab him.
2nd round, 45th pick
G Zane Beadles, Utah, 6'4", 305
He's a big guy who fits in with McDaniels' vision of a big O-line. From what I've read, the knock on him is his strength, but he has good athleticism. Don't know a whole lot about him, but the mock drafts I've seen put him as a third- to fourth-round pick.
3rd round, 80th pick
C J.D. Walton, Baylor, 6'3", 305
104.3 The Fan's Alfred Williams seems to love this pick. Walton's a strong, athletic guy who will probably start early. He's one of the higher center prospects in this year's draft. Projected by most to be a third-round pick.
3rd round, 87th pick
WR Eric Decker, Minnesota, 6'2", 215
Decker was originally projected to be a second-round pick before a foot injury dropped his stock. He's a possession receiver with decent size. Great hands, good blocker. If he fully recovers from his injury, it's a very good pick-up for the Broncos.
5th round, 137th pick
CB Perrish Cox, Oklahoma St., 6'0", 198
Good-sized cornerback. Apparently his stock dropped because of character concerns, according to Yahoo! Sports. The Broncos may use him as a kick returner. Not a bad pick at this point in the draft.
6th round, 183rd pick
G Eric Olsen, Notre Dame, 6'4", 305
A solid O-lineman who will be a backup center and guard for the Broncos. Adds depth.
