The Denver Broncos have selected Bradley Chubb with the fifth pick in the 2018 NFL Draft.
The surprise in this pick was that Chubb slipped to fifth, not that the Denver Broncos picked him there. Chubb, 6’4″ and 270 lbs. out of North Carolina State may be the most NFL ready player in this year’s NFL Draft.
Chubb mentionedVon Milleras a role model and player he models his game after. Miller, whose numbers took a small hit last season withoutDeMarcus Wareopposite him on Denver’s line.
Look for Chubb to have an immediate role on the already stellar Broncos defense. With the potential loss of interior linemanAdam Gotsisthere will be a need for depth on the line.
There is no lack of confidence in the Marietta, Georgia native. With Miller andKhalil Mackas players he models his game after, he should wreak havoc from the end for Denver for years.
As mentioned on the Draft broadcast, Denver had a deal in place to swap picks with the Buffalo Bills but when Bradley Chubb was still on the board the Broncos chose to use the pick.
This was a coup for the Broncos, made possible by Cleveland’s pick of DenzelWardat number four. Here’s hoping that Denver can capture the same fire and production with Bradley Chubb that they did with Von Miller.
