Here’s an interesting fact: Von Miller is the highest-drafted player in Broncos history.
In the five-plus decades of the franchise’s existence, the Broncos have only selected inside the top-10 six times, inside the top-five four and inside the top three once (Miller at No. 2 in 2011). And so far, he’s living up to the billing.
Miller is on pace to be the best defender in franchise history, but he’s still got a ways to go before he can climb this list of all-time greats.
