With the 31st pick in the NFL Draft, the Denver Broncos select…
Allen Robinson, WR, Penn State
Selection made by Sayre Bedinger, Predominantly Orange
Here is the analysis on the selection:
This might come as a shock to some, but the Broncos go with a WR here in the first round. With Eric Decker departed, the thought was that the Broncos would replace him long term with Emmanuel Sanders, but I think they are looking to add size on the outside for the future and use Sanders as a slot man when Wes Welker is done. Robinson has a lot of experience in a pro-style offense, visited Denver before the draft, and makes a lot of sense with the way the board fell in this draft.
