The Denver Broncos solved their tight end problem for the immediate future when they signed Evan Engram to a 2-year, $23 million contract on March 12.
ESPN’s Mel Kiper Jr. and Field Yates believe the Broncos will solve their tight end problem for the foreseeable future in the 2025 NFL draft, where they predict Denver will take LSU tight end Mason Taylor in the second round (No. 51 overall).
“Denver signed Evan Engram this offseason, and it could really take the tight end room to the next level with Taylor,” Yates wrote on April 15. “He’s a natural pass catcher, but he also holds up very well as a blocker.”
Taylor’s father is Pro Football Hall of Fame defensive end Jason Taylor and his uncle is Pro Football Hall of Fame linebacker Zach Thomas. He’s also one of the youngest players in the draft and won’t turn 21 years old until after the NFL draft.
