4. Mekhi Becton, Offensive Tackle, Louisville
One of the biggest needs that Elway will have to address this offseason is finding more protection for Drew Lock. The offensive tackle position is one that the Broncos cannot afford to ignore. Mekhi Becton seems to be the best fit at No. 15 should Denver choose to go offensive line.
CBS Sports projected the Broncos to take Becton in a recent mock draft. Here is the explanation that they gave for the selection.
John Elway goes with Becton to help fortify the future for Drew Lock in Denver, as Garret Bolles isn’t trending in the right direction on the left side.
Denver would be wise to consider this option, assuming Becton is available.
