The Denver Broncos will have the 30th overall pick in the first round of the 2026 NFL Draft, scheduled to begin on April 23 in Pittsburgh. The team secured this draft position after reaching the AFC Championship Game during the previous season.

Denver’s selection comes immediately after the Los Angeles Rams, who also advanced to their conference championship game but finished with a better record in 2025. This marks one of the latest first-round picks for the Broncos since they selected Bradley Roby at number 31 in 2014.

The franchise has previously picked at number 30 twice before. Their most recent first-round choice was cornerback Jahdae Barron.

The draft will be held from Thursday, April 23 through Saturday, April 25.
