NFL Draft 2014
Round 1: Thursday, May 8th.
Rounds 2-3: Friday, May 9th.
Rounds 4-7: Saturday, May 10th.
Pick:
Round 1, Pick 31 (31):
Bradley Roby, CB, Ohio State.
- Analysis: Ran a 4.39-second 40-yard dash and has very good ball skills. His size knocked down his draft status but he has the speed to play tight bump and run coverage with anyone. Sat out the 2013 season opener due to a suspension but has to keep his head in the game and maintain focus.
- Stats: 2013 – 5 games: 69 total tackles, 54 solo, 3 interceptions.
Thrilled to add CB Bradley Roby. He's a tremendous talent at an area of need, and he was the highest-rated player left on our draft board.

Round 2, Pick 24 (via SF) (56):
Cody Latimer, WR, Indiana.
Analysis: Has impressive speed to separate himself from defenders and can extend plays with his strength — breaking tackles. Has good hands according to scouts but concentration can be an issue at times. Needs to improve on his hitch and comeback routes.
2013 stats: 12 games – 72 catches, 1,096 yards, 9 TD’s.
Pleased to trade up and select wide receiver Cody Latimer from Indiana. Big, fast & physical WR with a tough mentality.

Round 3, Pick 31 (95):
Michael Schofield, OT, Michigan
Added Michael Schofield in 3rd Rd from Michigan. A versatile tackle who can also play guard. Tremendous upside and brings competition to OL.

Round 5, (156):
Lamin Barrow, OLB, LSU
We've picked Lamin Barrow from LSU in Rd 5. Versatile linebacker who can play Mike or Will positions. Good toughness & instincts.

Round 6, Pick 31 (207):
Matt Paradis, C, Boise State
We've picked C Matt Paradis from Boise St. A smart, versatile player who was leader of OL. Was a Bronco in college and will stay a Bronco!

Round 7, pick (242):
Corey Nelson, OLB, Oklahoma
Selected LB Corey Nelson from Oklahoma in 7th Rd. He's got great speed and a nose for the football.
