Like many teams heading into this draft, the Denver Broncos need some major help on the defensive side of the ball. Well, really, they need help on both sides. However, outside of grabbing a quarterback, some of the Broncos' biggest needs should come on defense.
And, as far as we can tell, they are also focusing on the defensive side, even with their first pick. We know this because they are having a top 30 visit with defensive end Jared Verse, who is projected to go in the top 15, and now they have one other guy they are having a top 30 with who is projected to go high.
According to multiple reports, the Broncos are having a top-30 visit with UCLA edge rusher Laiatu Latu.
#UCLA edge Laiatu Latu, one of the draft's best pass rushers, is on a Top 30 visit to the #Vikings today, source said. He was with the #Bears yesterday and already met with the #Broncos, plus he has #AZCardinals tomorrow.
