With the 14th pick of the second round (46th overall), the Denver Broncos selected Orlando Franklin, a tackle from the Miami Hurricanes. Franklin could play right tackle, likely signaling the end of Ryan Harris' time with the team (Harris is a restricted free agent). But he played guard for the Hurricanes as well.
Interestingly, the Broncos have yet to draft any help on the defensive line, a glaring need. They passed over players such as Stephen Paea, Da'Quan Bowers and Marvin Austin.
While Shannon Sharpe did come out for the second pick, a contest winner announced the selection instead. He was wearing a Terrell Davis jersey.
The Broncos have one more selection on Friday, the third pick of the third round (67th overall).
