Denver Broncos general manager George Paton received some extra draft capital ahead of the start of the NFL's new league year.
The NFL awarded compensatory draft picks earlier this week, and the Broncos received a pair of seventh-round picks , presumably for losing running back Javonte Williams and punter Riley Dixon during free agency in 2025. After adding those selections, Denver now holds nine picks in the 2026 NFL draft.
The league also announced the full order of selections this week, and the Broncos are currently slated to make the final two picks, barring trades. Take a look at Denver's full order of picks below:
Broncos 2026 NFL draft order of picks

Round 1: 30th overall

Round 2: 62nd overall
-
Round 3: 94th overall
-

-
Round 4: 130th overall
-
Round 5: 170th overall
-
Round 7: 246th overall
-
Round 7: 256th overall ( Javonte Williams comp pick)
-
Round 7: 257th overall ( Riley Dixon comp pick)
Denver holds all but one of its original picks, and the team gained a fourth-round pick from the New Orleans Saints in exchange for wide receiver Devaughn Vele last year.
The Broncos lost their original sixth-round pick when the team acquired defensive lineman John Franklin-Myers in a trade with the New York Jets in 2024. After letting JFM walk in free agency this year, Denver will likely receive a fourth-round comp pick for next year's draft.
The 2026 NFL draft will be held in Pittsburgh from April 23-25.
