45. Here is Predominantly Orange’s draft pick for the FS Community Mock Draft. <p>With the 20th pick in the 2017 NFL Draft, the Denver Broncos select Forrest Lamp, OL from Western Kentucky.</p> <p>There is no doubt about it that the biggest need for the Denver Broncos going into the draft is to find a left tackle. With Russell Okung jumping ship to the Los Angeles Chargers, this became a huge area of need.</p> <p>Some of the biggest names from free agency signed elsewhere at the left tackle position, so the Broncos are found scrambling to address this very key position.</p> <p>John Elway likes offensive linemen who can play multiple positions on the line. And Forrest Lamp is one of those guys.</p> <p>Perhaps the best OL on the big board, Lamp played all four years at left tackle for the Western Kentucky Hilltoppers. Some scouts fear that his length could force him to play on the inside of the line in the NFL. </p> <p>But his footwork and positioning are very well received. He is solid in the run game, which the Broncos struggled with during the 2016 season.</p> <p>With his abilities, this could be the best guy to help the Denver Broncos offensive line. He has all the tools to become a starter in the NFL. His flexibility on the line is an added bonus.</p>. OL. Western Kentucky. Forrest Lamp. 20. player
