player. 45. There can be no arguing the central reason for why the Denver Broncos took a step back in 2016. The blocking up front by their offensive line was sub par. They couldn’t get anything going on the ground and struggled to protect any of the quarterbacks who started. This is a problem that must take central priority for the team moving forward. With the exit of Russell Okung, left tackle jumps to the top of that to-do list.
<p>Ryan Ramczyk of Wisconsin was a late riser on boards, but there is no denying he’s the best overall pass protector in this class. Big, athletic and physical. The key point of contention with him was a hip injury he’d suffered during the season. There’s been no word of any problems with it at the combine, so he should be good to go by training camp. Adding more strength will be something for him to work on but otherwise he can be that blind side guy for Denver.</p>. OT. Wisconsin. Ryan Ramczyk . 20
