Bo Nix and the Denver Broncos are on the cusp of greatness, and this 2025 NFL Mock Draft could actually help Nix win the MVP in 2025. Denver won 10 games in 2024 and made the playoffs; both were firsts since the Super Bowl season back in 2015.
When you look at this roster as a whole, you don't see a lot of needs at all, and they may only truly have one urgent need at running back. It would not be an exaggeration to say that QB Bo Nix could compete for the MVP award in his second year.
He threw for 29 touchdown passes in 2024 and was clearly not working with a great group of playmakers. Let's see if this NFL mock draft gets Nix enough help to win the MVP.
Broncos 2025 NFL mock draft: Bo Nix gets enough help to win the MVP award
20. Matthew Golden, WR, Texas
Matthew Golden is one of the best and most polished wide receivers in the 2025 NFL Draft, and we know that the Broncos have done their homework this offseason with certain WR prospects. While the team's current WR room is on the younger side, it's clearly missing a player.
Golden is a smooth-route runner and could absolutely be the missing piece at this position for Denver. Courtland Sutton is likely to get a contract extension in the coming days or weeks, and Marvin Mims Jr really turned into a productive player during the back half of the 2025 NFL Season.
51. TreVeyon Henderson, RB, Ohio State
TreVeyon Henderson on the Denver Broncos might be the best overall fit of an RB prospect on any team in this year's draft. He can do it all and has the makeup of being a 'Joker' in Sean Payton's offense. He might not be available near the bottom of the second round, but you just never know.
The first two picks being Golden and Henderson is already enough help for Bo Nix to takeoff in year two.
85. Terrance Ferguson, TE, Oregon
A former teammate of Bo Nix's at Oregon, Terrance Ferguson is a solid Day 2 tight end prospect and could be someone who enters into a perfect situation with Evan Engram and Adam Trautman. Engram is clearly above-average as a receiving tight end, and Trautman is a good blocker. Ferguson would not have to contribute immediately and would have the runway to develop into a long-term option at the position.
122. CJ West, DT, Indiana
With the Broncos defensive line being a huge strength, why not try to keep it a strength? CJ West is the pick for the team here in the fourth round. All of Zach Allen, John Franklin-Myers, and Malcolm Roach are set to be free agents following the 2025 NFL Season.
Denver might not be able to retain all of them with the team having extended DJ Jones this past offseason.
191. Jake Majors, OC, Texas
The Broncos sported one of the best offensive lines in the NFL during the 2024 season, but they do have four massive contracts along the OL. The one realistic way for them to improve the unit right now is to try and upgrade at center over Luke Wattenberg, who was a great pass blocker but a poor run blocker in 2024.
Jake Majors is a stellar selection in the sixth round and could legitimately push Wattenberg for the starting job immediately.
197. Clay Webb, OG, Jacksonville State
Another interior offensive line pick, the Denver Bronocs take Clay Webb from Jacksonville State and stock up the OL room with potential long-term starters. Besides Wattenberg, Denver can quite easily move on from OG Ben Powers next offseason.
208. Jaydon Blue, RB, Texas
The last pick in this mock draft, the Broncos take Jaydon Blue from Texas and double-dip at RB. This draft class is insanely loaded at the position, so this is a wise idea for GM George Paton, who may have just built a juggernaut.
Would this draft haul be enough for Bo Nix to win the MVP in 2025?
