The Denver Broncos selected Illinois WR Pat Bryant with the No. 74 overall pick in the 2025 NFL draft. Pat Bryant is a physical and alignment versatile possession receiver with good athleticism to win on the outside.

Pat Bryant, out of Illinois, comes to Denver with a fantastic mix of pedigree and production. Joining second-year QB Bo Nix, Bryant has a chance to be a real key piece in the years to come a mile above sea level.

Going in the middle of the third round was a massive win for Bryant, who had a fourth, or even fifth round pre-draft grade.
