Finding Broncos: Arizona's Jordan Morgan vs. Yale's Kiran Amegadjie | OT

• Height: 6-foot-5
• Weight: 311 pounds
• Arm Length: 32-7/8 inches
• Hands: 10-7/8 inches
• Relative Athletic Score: 9.10

Pros

Morgan has good experience, having played 2,404 snaps on offense since 2019. He has plenty of starting experience and no questions about his work ethic. He's a great athlete and plays light on his feet, carrying his weight well and balanced.

When working as a blocker, Morgan maintains balance with proper bend. He does well at torquing power through his lower half to generate some movement. 

Morgan's feel in pass protection is top-notch, and he rarely oversets or undersets. The feel in pass protection is also there when mirroring his defenders staying in front of them. 

Morgan is quick with his kick-slide and can change direction in a flash to absorb counter moves. Among the tackles in the class, his jump set is among the best, allowing him to stall pass rushers immediately. The recovery is excellent when he loses reps early. 

Morgan has great grip strength, which makes it hard for defenders to break free from his blocks. He also does well on combo blocks, showing good timing and technique. 

Cons

Morgan's strength and power are lacking; he relies on his length and athleticism to compensate. He also doesn't generate push in the run game and can struggle at times to generate torque to help generate push. 

Morgan has issues with his hand and punch technique. There isn't much power behind the punch, and the placement is consistently off. When he does miss his punch, he also lacks the quick re-fire to fire off multiple punches quickly. 

When working on outside runs or climbing to the second level, Morgan can miss his landmarks and doesn't always work with good timing or pacing. There's also a question about where his best fit would be in the NFL and if he can last as a tackle or be better off inside. 

Fit With Broncos

While Morgan has many appealing traits, his fit with the Broncos is messy. He isn't an ideal fit for their scheme, and they need to find a developmental tackle option. Morgan might be better suited working inside, which doesn't help his fit with the team.

Big Board Position: No. 44 overall.

Kiran Amegadjie | Yale

• Height: 6-foot-5
• Weight: 323 pounds
• Arm Length: 36-1/8 inches
• Hands: 9-5/8 inches
• Relative Athletic Score: N/A

Pros

Amegadjie is a modern NFL tackle with great athleticism, length, and enough power. He is scheme versatile and could play guard or tackle in the  NFL, possibly on both sides. He has also been praised for his football IQ, smarts, and ability as a quick learner.

Amegadjie has an exceptional understanding of leverage to get under defenders and drive them off the line of scrimmage to create a push at the line. He can also generate torque to add power and help create even more push at the line. 

Amegadjie's hand technique showed tremendous improvement from 2022 to 2023 and continued to develop as the 2023 season continued. The same goes for his anchor, with its power and how quickly he can drop an anchor. 

Amegadjie's lower half is loose, and he has good agility and movement skills to get outside or climb to the second level, with good timing and pacing. He has good balance and body control when moving and working in his pass sets. 

Cons

The biggest issue with Amegadjie is the jump in competition. Going from playing at Yale to the NFL is a significant jump, and with so much projection, his evaluation can be a bit muddied. 

Multiple technical aspects, like his punch timing and technique, need to be worked on for him to be able to play tackle in the NFL. His instincts and awareness would also create issues when working at the NFL level. Amegadjie also has some injury concerns after missing action in 2023 and missing much of the draft process. 

Fit With Broncos

Amegadjie is an excellent fit for the Broncos, especially if they keep Bolles. It would provide Denver with a developmental tackle option that needs a year or two to develop before starting. 

With Bolles as a starter, the Broncos could give Amegadjie the necessary development time. This would also be a big test for offensive line coach Zach Strief and his ability to develop tackles. 

Big Board Position: No. 48 overall.

Better Fit for Broncos

When looking at the better fit for the Broncos, timing, position, and scheme matter significantly for the offensive line. Morgan could start immediately but may not be the best scheme fit while being better as a guard. 

Amegadjie is a developmental option who could sit and develop to last as a tackle at the NFL level. He fits the Broncos' scheme, which is the most significant difference between these two options.
