Can you imagine Oklahoma receiver CeeDee Lamb starting opposite Courtland Sutton for the Broncos?

That’s what Bleacher Report’s Matt Miller sees in his latest NFL mock draft.

“CeeDee Lamb was almost unstoppable for Oklahoma over the last two seasons as he dominated the Big 12 and showed off his awesome catch radius, power after the catch and toughness,” Miller writes. “He might not be the biggest or fastest runner, but no one can find a way to stop Lamb when he’s on a breaking route and using his physicality to keep defensive backs from the ball.”

It’s a change from his previous choice for Denver in Iowa offensive tackle Tristan Wirfs. The lineman’s stock, however, has skyrocketed, jumping to No. 10 in the mock draft.

Miller runs through all seven rounds in his latest mock. Here’s who he has the Broncos selecting in the other six rounds:

  • Round 2, 46th pick: A.J. Terrell, CB, Clemson
  • Round 3, 77th pick: Lucas Niang, OT, TCU
  • Round 3, 83rd pick: Jordan Elliott, DL, Missouri
  • Round 3, 95th pick, Anfernee Jennings, Edge, Alabama
  • Round 4, 115th pick: Markus Bailey, LB, Purdue
  • Round 4, 134th pick: Logan Stenberg, IOL, Kentucky
  • Round 5, 179th pick: Joshua Kelley, RB, UCLA
  • Round 6, 182nd pick: Jordan Fuller, S, Ohio State
  • Round 7, 238th pick: Malcolm Perry, WR, Navy
  • Round 7, 252nd pick: John Reid, CB, Penn State
  • Round 7, 255th pick: Kevin Davidson, QB, Princeton

Another note: Three Colorado players were selected in this mock draft. Receiver Laviska Shenault Jr. is projected to go to the Bengals with the first pick (33rd overall) in the second round. Quarterback Steven Montez went to the Bears in the fifth round with the 160th overall pick. And linebacker Davion Taylor went to the Bills in the sixth round at No. 189.
