Here\u2019s a breakdown of the new faces.<\/p>\n<p>C Clay Webb, Jacksonville State: Webb excelled for three seasons at Jacksonville State, allowing just seven pressures in 915 snaps at left guard in 2024. He\u2019s got the size at 6-foot-3 and 312 pounds to be a difference-maker and provide solid offensive-line depth in the NFL. In 2020, however, AL.com <a href=\"https:\/\/www.al.com\/news\/2020\/01\/alleged-high-school-prank-bullying-leads-to-federal-suit-against-former-oxford-5-star-recruit.html\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">reported he was named in a federal bullying lawsuit<\/a>, a plaintiff alleging he was encouraged to drink from a Gatorade bottle that allegedly contained Webb\u2019s semen.<\/p>\n<p>Edge Johnny Walker Jr., Mizzou:\u00a0The Broncos may have gotten a steal here. After adding edge help in Alabama\u2019s Que Robinson in the fourth round, Denver picked up another potential impact pass-rusher in Walker, who recorded 9.5 sacks for Mizzou this past season. The frame isn\u2019t huge at 6-foot-2 and 246 pounds, but the production is worth a look.<\/p>\n<p>WR Joaquin Davis, North Carolina Central: An ideal post-draft flyer. Davis didn\u2019t have massive production at HBCU North Carolina Central, with 30 catches for 448 yards in 2024, but the measurables are off-the-charts: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/DGMoHgPxsCu\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;ig_rid=3b415fb3-73ab-4a32-9f70-cdda5fb47d6e\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">6-foot-4, 4.44-second 40-yard dash and 40.5-inch vertical at the HBCU Combine<\/a>. Fun fact: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/athletic\/6288529\/2025\/04\/23\/nfl-draft-prospect-hbcu-wr-davis\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">he\u2019s a horseback rider, according to The Athletic<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>WR Jerjuan Newton, Toledo:\u00a0The 5-foot-11, 190-pound wideout brings big-time production with 72 catches for 1,048 yards and 11 touchdowns his final season at Toledo. He\u2019s totaled 29 touchdown catches in the last three years.<\/p>\n<p>WR Courtney Jackson, Arkansas State: A potential slot receiver for the Broncos, Jackson played a majority of his snaps there for Arkansas State the past two years and totaled 81 catches across 2023 and 2024.<\/p>\n<p>OL Xavier Truss, Georgia:\u00a0Hard to go wrong with adding veteran SEC linemen. Truss started for three years at Georgia, with decent but inconsistent results as a pass-blocker. He\u2019s got NFL-ready size at 6-7 and 309 pounds, and has taken snaps at every line spot besides center across the last four years.<\/p>\n<p>LB JB Brown, Kansas:\u00a0He likely went undrafted because of his size \u2014 sort of a tweener at 6-2 and 230 pounds \u2014 but Brown was a difference-maker last year at Kansas in playing both mike and will linebacker, and getting plenty of looks as a blitzer off the edge. He racked up 20 pressures and five sacks last year, according to Pro Football Focus, and offers plenty of versatility.<\/p>\n<p>OL Joe Michalski, Oklahoma State:\u00a0NFL.com characterized Michalski as having \u201cbelow-average mass and length\u201d for a center, at 6-5 and 305 pounds. He\u2019s been solid the past two years for Oklahoma State, though, only allowing a combined 14 pressures across 2023 and 2024, per PFF.<\/p>\n<p>DT Christian Dowell, UT Martin:\u00a0Dowell hails from an FCS program in UT Martin and hasn\u2019t put an overwhelming amount of collegiate snaps on tape. He showed promise as a run-stopper in 2024, though, and has nose-tackle mass at 6-2 and 320 pounds.<\/p>\n<p>LB Karene Reid, Utah:\u00a0The Broncos and Paton have mined plenty of talent from Utah in recent years, between outside linebacker Jonah Elliss and wide receiver DeVaughn Vele in 2024 and tight end Caleb Lohner in this year\u2019s class. They kept the party going with Reid. He profiles similarly to Brown, with tweener size at 6-foot and 226 pounds and splitting time between mike and will in 2024.<\/p>\n<p>CB Jaden Robinson, Oregon State:\u00a0Robinson was a two-year starter for the Beavers, racking up 38 tackles and four pass deflections in 2024.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/myaccount.denverpost.com\/dp\/preference\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Want more Broncos news?
