Jonah ColemanDEN
Coleman is drawing interest from Broncos head coach Sean Payton, who praised his third-down ability and blocking prowess. Payton noted Coleman's frame and college tape show strong protection recognition without needing development. Coleman's tough running style—71 percent of his college rushing production came after first contact—could force Denver coaches to involve him early. At ADP 146 (RB47), Coleman could function as Denver's top back if JK Dobbins struggles with injuries or RJ Harvey continues to underperform.

Payton says Coleman "can play on third downs." "Normally, you have to project that," Payton said of Coleman, the 109th pick in the 2026 draft out of Washington. "A lot of these guys, in college, maybe the protection plan's different or limited. So, you have to develop that, and that's fine, but (Coleman's) frame is such that, when you see him, he does a really good job in blocking pressure looks."
