2019 NFL Mock Draft: Projected first round after Week 11
By Phil Poling
The Denver Broncos have one of the best pass rushes in the NFL, but their own pass protection isn’t where it needs to be to compete. Through October 30th, the Broncos have allowed 22 sacks, which is the 10th-most in the league. That is why drafting Ole Miss’ Greg Little would be in their best interest.
Some Broncos fans believe in quarterback Case Keenum, and giving him some much-needed protection up front will be a great indicator for if he is the future there. Adding a weapon at wide receiver after trading away Demaryius Thomas would also be a good move, but shoring up the offensive line is a must.
Little, who’s listed at 6-foot-6, has been a staple for the Rebels’ offensive line since his freshman season in 2016. He played in every game his first year on campus and started five, and was named to the freshman All-SEC first team by the league’s coaches.
