Broussard goes on to agree that the No. 6 spot is a bit too high for the Broncos, pointing to the lack of offensive playmakers and suggesting that Bo Nix may be getting a little too much credit.

Bomani Jones and Benjamin Solak incensed Broncos Country with their Bo Nix criticism, and the analytics aren't kind to their controversial opinions.

Nix is the second Broncos player to make this year's list, joining defensive lineman Zach Allen (No. 90). Denver guard Quinn Meinerz and pass rusher Nik Bonitto seem likely to appear on the list, and star cornerback Pat Surtain should be a lock after winning Defensive Player of the Year in 2024.
