20. Denver Broncos
Ryan Ramczyk . 20. player. 45. Too many sacks allowed and a poor effort in the running game. It’s clear the Denver Broncos offensive line was a far cry from its proud past in 2016. It was also a big reason they failed to make the playoffs. With so much youth and inexperience in the backfield, having quality blocking up front is a must. John Elway knows than better than anybody. Making a concerted effort to fix it is high on the priority list. <p>Ryan Ramczyk has a case for being the best tackle in the 2017 class. He’s quite the athlete for being such a big guy, able to mirror in pass protection with speed or power rushers. He also shows the required nasty and toughness in the ground game. The issue is this hip injury he’s dealing with. It’s unclear where he’s at in terms of needing surgery or if he’s healing. So medical evaluations at the scouting combine will be big. If he checks out, the Broncos have a quality new edge protector.</p>. OT. Wisconsin
